An Istanbul derby football game called off last week due to violence will pick up where it left off next Thursday, but with no fans in attendance, the Turkish Football Federation ruled today.

The Fenerbahçe-Beşiktaş match will pick up with the 57th minute on May 3.

The second leg of the Ziraat Turkish Cup semifinal on April 20 at Fenerbahçe's home ground, Ülker Stadium, was called off by the referee after Beşiktaş manager Senol Güneş got injured by objects flung from the stands.

Güneş had to get several stitches to his head.

After the incident, Beşiktaş players and the referees left the pitch.

The first leg at Beşiktaş' home ground, Vodafone Park, had ended 2-2.

Akhisarspor are the first squad to reach the cup final after eliminating Galatasaray.
