Tottenham's Europa League game against Besiktas in Istanbul was suspended when the floodlights at the Ataturk Stadium went off eight minutes into the game.

Play in the Group C clash was then suspended as the players were marched into the dressing rooms while fans in the stands took out their mobile phones and lit up the stands.

After a few minutes of scrabbling behind the scenes, the lights came back to life and play resumed after a 16-minute delay.

That however, was not the end of it, as the lights went AGAIN in second half stoppage time, with Spurs trailing 1-0. After another 10 minute delay the two sides were able to play out the final two minutes of injury time and Besiktas held onto their lead to run out 1-0 winners and top the group.

This came after Spurs' last Europa League game was marred by a pitch invasion against Partizan Belgrade, where three intruders disrupted the London side's 1-0 win. Spurs were today fined €15,000 over the incident.
