Barcelona came from behind to beat Galatasaray 4-1 in the Champions League on Tuesday at RAMS Park in Istanbul.

 

Galatasaray took the lead in the 28th minute through Aleksey Batrakov after a pass from Rafael Leao.

 

Barcelona equalized before half time through Joao Cancelo in the 43rd minute after a pass from Dani Olmo.

 

In the second half, Lamine Yamal took over. He assisted Fermin Lopez in the 50th minute to make it 2-1, then assisted Anthony Gordon three minutes later in the 53rd minute for 3-1.

 

Substitute Karim Adeyemi completed the scoring in the 65th minute with a fine finish after a move involving Gabriel Jesus and Lamine Yamal. It was his first goal for Barcelona.

 

The win means Barcelona now have 2 wins from 2 games in the Champions League and 10 wins from 10 in all competitions this season.

 

Karim Adeyemi, who is German-Nigerian, showed why Barcelona signed him. His pace and finishing were too much for Galatasaray defence.

 

Lamine Yamal was named man of the match with two assists and a 9.0 rating. Victor Osimhen played for Galatasaray but could not score as his header was ruled out for offside.

 

Barcelona will now play Real Betis on Saturday and PSG next week. Galatasaray have 0 points from 2 games.
