Istanbul Basaksehir achieved the famous first victory in the Champions League groups. The team that debuted in the race beat Manchester United 2-1 to take their first three points in Europe’s elite.
The hosts took the lead after less than a quarter of an hour of play. Captain Edin Vishcha gave a pass almost halfway to Demba Ba, who easily passed the English front defensive line to score 1: 0 in the 13th minute.
Shortly before the break, Vishcha himself doubled the Turks’ lead, and after an impressive attack, which started from the left wing, where Denise Tyuryuch first took the ball and then threw it into the penalty area, Demba Ba jumped it and Vishcha easily outpointed Dean Henderson – 2: 0 in the 39th minute.
Anthony Marcial gave guests a glimmer of hope four minutes later when he returned a goal. The French nine of the guests scored with a header to reduce to 2: 1.
The Red Devils did not show particularly impressive attacking play in the first half, and the lack of creativity against the well-organized Turkish defense continued after the break.
Ole Gunnar Solskyar looked for a trade by putting Paul Pogba, Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood in the second half, but to no avail. The guests controlled the ball more, but failed to create dangers in front of the Turkish team’s gate.
In the continuation of the match, reserve Mehmet Topal saved his team, clearing the ball from the goal line in the final seconds of the match.
After this result, Istanbul Basaksehir already has three points after three games, while Manchester United is left with six in their assets.
