Galatasaray - Barcelona live | Cancelo equalizes the contest before the break

Barcelona and Galatasaray are drawing this Tuesday in the second day of the Champions League. The Barça team started the match much better and Çakir served up three hands to prevent Flick's team from scoring their first goal. But it was Batrakov who put the Turkish team ahead with some luck. After a run by Rafael Leao, the Portuguese footballer gave it to his Russian teammate and he shot from the front with the luck that the ball hit Gerard Martín and ended up inside the goal. Shortly after, a second goal would arrive that would finally be annulled. A cross from Batrakov from the corner ended with a shot from Oshimen and Baris Yilmaz touched just enough to throw off Joan García, although the full-back's position was ahead of the Barça defense. Barça suffered, but then Cancelo appeared before the break to equalize the contest. Dani Olmo stole from the front, the ball fell to Cancelo and the Portuguese did not forgive in the one-on-one against Çakir. Hansi Flick's men are looking for their second victory in the Champions League after beating Feyenoord in their first match at the Camp Nou (5-1).

End of the first half at Rams Park!

End of the first act in Istanbul with a tie. Galatasaray took the lead with a goal from Batrakov and there could have been a second if it were not for the intervention of the VAR that annulled Yilmaz's goal for offside. And when Barcelona suffered the most, Cancelo appeared to level the contest.

1-1.

Well, Galatasaray's goal arrives when Barcelona deserved it most

The Barça team had had several, but between Çakir and the lack of skill, Barça could not reflect its superiority on the scoreboard in this first half hour, which saw how the Turkish team punished it in its first arrival.

GALATASARAY GOOOOL!

Batrakov overtakes the Turkish team! First arrival, first goal. Gordon asked for a penalty in a previous action and the Turkish goal came on the counter. Tireless run by Rafael Leao, the Portuguese puts it to the front where Batrakov appears to shoot. The bad luck of the Blaugrana that the ball hit Gerard Martín and caught Joan García off guard, who was shocked.

1-0.

Long possession now for Galatasaray

The Turkish team's first long possession so far in the game. However, he cannot reach the opponent's goal if it is not with direct play and long balls to Leao and Oshimen.

Great play by Cancelo that finally covers up the defense

Very good ball from Rodri behind the defense, Cancelo receives it, dribbles in the area rushing the baseline and when he went to shoot a Galatasaray defender got in the way. Even so, the Portuguese was somewhat ahead.

What a save from Çakir!
