KEY POINTS

  • Galatasaray and Barcelona drew 1-1 in Champions League Matchday 2 at RAMS Park.
  • Batrakov scored for Galatasaray in the 28th minute; Cancelo equalised in the 43rd.
  • Osimhen started for Galatasaray; his first-half header was disallowed for offside by VAR.
  • Barcelona missed Raphinha, Christensen, Bardghji and De Jong through injury.
  • Galatasaray were without defender Wilfried Singo.

Galatasaray drew 1-1 with Barcelona in the second matchday of the UEFA Champions League league phase at RAMS Park on Tuesday. The first half ended level after a frantic spell saw Batrakov open the scoring for the hosts before Cancelo equalised for the visitors.

Both teams were forced to field depleted line-ups. Barcelona travelled without Raphinha, Andreas Christensen, Roony Bardghji and Frenkie de Jong due to injury. Galatasaray were missing defender Wilfried Singo, who had been training individually.

Victor Osimhen started up front for Galatasaray after passing a late fitness test, leading the line alongside Leao and Batrakov. The Nigerian striker had a header ruled out for offside by VAR before the break.

Barcelona named a squad featuring Lamine Yamal, Pedri, Gavi and Dani Olmo despite their injury absentees. Joan Garcia started in goal behind a defence marshalled by Pau Cubarsi and Joao Cancelo.

The match was officiated by Italian referee Marco Guida. The result leaves both sides searching for their first win in the new 36-team league phase format.
