LUCKY BIG: Trouble called PEDRI
“If the team’s name is Galatasaray, when you play in a European match, when you win a goalless draw in the first match, you don’t consider your opponent’s name to be Barcelona and you fall into the dream you believe in. Then you set sail for hope … you know that there are historical experiences and things behind you … of course you say “come again” … you’re not wrong …
Of course, these are pre-match feelings … the match started and we’re back in reality from sweet hopes, sweet dreams … Barcelona in front of us wasn’t Barcelona in the first match. .. We left the ball from the first minute and the match against Barcelona …
Barcelona, who played the best pass game in the world, turned the ball as he wanted in the large area left by Galatasaray … he established an absolute advantage … but like the first match, his opponent I should have played nearby. I couldn’t think about it or defend and attack because it was easy to pass by. We were missing both when we tried to escape …
Nonetheless, the goal was fine, except that De John’s shot reached a long distance … even the goalkeeper Pena didn’t fall to the ground … from Marcao’s head, especially the ball, history. It seemed to tell a new sign in …
After this goal we should have continued the game, at least we had to enter the game 1-0 … we couldn’t. A tragedy called Pedro turned our heads … we stop the 19-year-old Spaniard, who is considered the best of his age group in the world, allegedly sold for Messi to play. Couldn’t …
The worst part is that we kept leaving a large area in Barcelona to play pass games. Isn’t it the right choice to start with a better Muhammad?
Barcelona must have measured his height from the first match, they played very close, saying “whatever happens to us comes from Kerem” … they are mostly stages Even marked … If Kerem passed one, he was caught by a second Barcelona player right next to him …
I was intrigued. Pedro, who had a hard time stopping, is 19 years old. Gabi, who later joined the game, is 17 years old. They are wearing one of the world’s largest team jerseys like Barcelona. Champions League match.
After Barcelona took the lead at the beginning of the second half, he didn’t even give Galatasaray a chance to draw, except for one position in Kerem.
Barcelona wasn’t the Barcelona we saw in the first match … played like Barcelona in Istanbul … Galatasaray was far away from the Camp Nou applauding Galatasaray … 50,000 lions filling the stands Despite the great support of Barcelona, it will be eliminated when it fails to show its influence and struggle in the first match … “
OSMAN SENHER: We just need to clave
“I’m very sorry that Galatasaray lost to Barcelona, but there’s one comfort there. All the yellow-red players are looking to the field. They fight like lions. But there is a fact. This cannot be ignored … there is really a big difference in quality between the two team players.
Barcelona continues to attack with eight players, who are half of Galatasaray. Take it, give it a smile, run away, they will score a goal once they find a position. They tried this 20 times. Meanwhile, Galatasaray came into the crowd just before the goal, and Marcao scored with his head. We need to accept. Galatasaray played good football against this great team. It certainly did not surrender. After being defeated, he searched for a goal in the last 15 minutes, but failed.
The Spanish team didn’t easily skip the lap. They also had a hard time. They did all sorts of junk to cool the game and stop it. After the result of this match, we can’t blame either torrents or players. I just applaud the yellow-red people who gave me this excitement.
The fans were great. Audiences who missed 52,000 successes turned the stadium into a holiday venue. The player has exceeded the capacity. Eat, drink and reach out to your conscience … Torrent hasn’t made any mistakes either. You can only play so much football for this team. He achieved that too. If Besiktas’s match had been postponed, Galatasaray would have survived longer in this match. Especially in the second half of the game, there were players who physically dropped out. In our opinion, the only reason for this was a series of matches …
70 minutes into the match, Tyrant and Berkan, who had been wondering for two matches, struggled, but couldn’t raise their legs. Shikardau can’t get what he wants. In the club, no midfielder is better than these players in the hands of the coach. No more, the team can’t play anyway. Fighting this battle against the Catalan team and playing hard is a huge success. Now, although excluded from the UEFA Cup, the excitement of this tour has given all fans great joy. Attempts will be made to identify the team’s shortcomings and play football better. Nice to meet you, children. “
MEHMETDEM0054RKOL: It was pain (FANATIC)
“They’ll want to shorten the game, we want to extend it.” Torrent’s pre-match description clearly explained the plan.
And I said, “What’s the match?” I tried to answer the question with hope rather than foresight: 0-0, Galatasaray of the penalty …
The first half went exactly as Galatasaray wanted. They were always putting pressure on Barcelona’s center players on time. The change in the position of the front and back of the wings was exactly the same as it was supposed to compete with the Barcelona Rohto every time. They should really be praised for digesting the memorization of this game very quickly.
3 negative performances
I realized, albeit a little, how valuable this was in the first half, especially when Gomis and Deer lost their place. They leaked instantly. The boy did it with some of them. This was a weak link. And we’ve seen what level Pedri has reached. Classy … So the three negative performances started to get out of balance. In favor of your opponent.
However, the first half was special as a general defensive force. In particular, we need to mention Marcos. Terim’s correct handling of the crisis at the beginning of the season has special consequences for the transfer season. The corner set in gold was number 10.
It was a lot of work
Barça worked diligently in addition to the three negative performances of the second half. Especially on the boy’s side. The fall here affected the entire defense plan with the domino effect. De Jung provided assistance from within the goal. They calmed down the additional players and took them to the penalty area. I wasn’t in a hurry in the first game.
The absence of Feghou, the absence from Omar’s list, and the wait for Trent’s change brought 1-2, making the job more difficult. Fallback for the first time. Galatasaray is already struggling to prepare for a match against Barça, who is doing a good counter press. It was a lot of work. The noble people who threw their possessions into the field made it even more difficult. It may have. That’s too bad.
ÖMERÜRÜN DÜL: Great resistance, heartfelt battle (morning)
It was a known fact that Barcelona, recognizing the seriousness of the business, played with high motivation last night and dominated the game with normal transit traffic. The important thing was what Galatasaray would do.
The yellow-red soccer player, with the support of the fans in the first half, gave effective resistance to the field. They were very successful in leaving no gaps in the defensive setup that narrowed the area, and even more aggressive attempts were not ignored. Trent knew his opponent was at risk, so he said, “Let’s start with Gomis,” and this idea was almost fixed. Gomis missed a very important position in the 5th minute. Marcao’s head goal from the corner boosted the team’s morale. It was important to continue the match after that, but it was Pedri’s easy goal. The scores were balanced when Marcos and Berkan jumped in succession to the ball they met in the penalty area.
The goal scored at the beginning of the second half became very difficult for the rest of the section. I thought my moral motivation would drop, but Galatasaray soccer players were confident that they would continue to fight in the same field despite physical fatigue. They even forced Barcelona to play more carefully in the last 15 minutes. They asked for a draw. Kerem found the position he wanted, but missed the goal with an unnecessary pass instead of a shot. Considering the two games in Barcelona, I congratulate the Galatasaray football players for their great resistance and hard work.
