Barcelona overcomes Galatasaray 4-1 in Champions League comeback

Barcelona secured a decisive 4-1 victory against Galatasaray in Istanbul during the second matchday of the UEFA Champions League league phase. Despite falling behind in the 28th minute to a goal by Aleksey Batrakov, the Spanish side staged a dominant second-half comeback.

Joao Cancelo equalized for Barcelona just before halftime. In the second half, Lamine Yamal played a pivotal role, providing assists for Fermin Lopez and Anthony Gordon to take the lead. Karim Adeyemi added a fourth goal in the 65th minute to seal the win. This victory marks Barcelona's tenth consecutive win across all competitions.

Galatasaray's performance included a disallowed second goal due to offside following a VAR review. Before the match, club presidents Joan Laporta and Dursun Aydın Özbek met in Istanbul to discuss the fixture and strengthen ties between the two historic clubs.
