The 2016 Turkish Super Cup (Turkish: TFF Süper Kupa) was the 43rd edition of the Turkish Super Cup since its establishment as Presidential Cup in 1966, the annual Turkish football season-opening match contested by the winners of the previous season's top league and cup competitions (or cup runner-up in case the league- and cup-winning club is the same). It took place on 13 August 2016 at the Konya Metropolitan Municipality Stadium in Konya,[1] and was contested between Beşiktaş, the 2015–16 Süper Lig winners,[2] and Galatasaray, the 2015–16 Turkish Cup winners.[3]

Played in front of a crowd of 33,700, the Galatasaray defeated Beşiktaş 3–0 on penalties after 1–1 tie in 120 minutes. Galatasaray's victory marked their 15th Turkish Super Cup triumph.[4]
