Istanbul heavyweight Galatasaray missed chance to win against Barcelona as the UEFA Europa League round of 16 first leg match concluded in Thursday a goalless draw.
Barça could not score against solid lions defense despite mostly dominating the match at Camp Nou while Galatasaray’s prodigious Kerem Aktürkoğlu shone with a brilliant performance.
The good display of Galatasaray goalkeeper Inaki Pena, who it’s a former Barcelona keeper and it’s on loan to Lions, no help it matters for Barça too.
The Giallorossi miss a few occasions and then Galatasaray’s Bafetimbi Gomis scores in the 78th minute, just 10 minutes after entering the match but the referee dismissed the goal due to an offside after the consultation with assistant referee video (VAR).
The second leg match will be held at the Ali Sami Yen Sports Complex Nef Stadium in Istanbul on March 17.
The Europa League 2022 final will be played at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium in Seville, Spain on May 25.
