Getting to Ali Sami Yen Spor Kompleksi

How away fans got there

Shuttle buses: police made them the only way in for away fans, from Sultanahmet Square to the ground and back
Departure: in a police-escorted convoy at 4:30pm local time, more than four hours before an 8:45pm kick-off
Late arrivals: the buses left on time and didn't come back for anyone who missed them
Journey: at least an hour; there's a toilet block in Sultanahmet Square but none on the buses

Away entrance

Turnstiles: six visiting turnstiles, reached through six narrow queuing lanes, opened three hours before kick-off
Section: upper tier of the south-east corner, blocks 418-421, behind security fencing and Perspex
Stairs: about 110 steps up, with no lift
