The ‘Red Devils’ conceded a goal early after Demba Ba (13′) scored at the start of the match, which is a historic first goal for the Turkish club in the tournament of the rich. At the end of the first half, Edin Vyscha (40 ‘) doubled, but soon after Anthony Marcial (43’) brought Manchester back into the game. In the second half, the United players tried to reach a draw, but it never happened.
Thus, Istanbul Basekshehir congratulated himself on his first victory in the Champions League. The team is in third place with 3 points, as are the Paris Saint-Germain and RB Leipzig teams, who will meet later tonight. However, United remains the leader of their group with 6 points.
The game started well for the guests, who tried to impose their game, but still allowed a goal in the 13th minute. Demba Ba received the ball into the center and reached Dean Henderson without being disturbed. The former Chelsea striker kept his cool and sent the ball out the door.
In the 32nd minute, Daniel Aleksić tried to take advantage of a cross in the penalty area, catching the ball with his head. However, Henderson showed a reflex and managed to save.
In the 40th minute, the hosts doubled their lead. An error by Juan Mata allowed Denis Tyuryuch to steal the ball. The player made good progress and made a pass on the grass. One Higher reached for the pass and sent the ball straight into Henderson’s goal.
Three minutes later, United returned a goal. Fernandes found Luke Shaw on the left wing, who crossed into the penalty area, and around the penalty spot Anthony Marcial passed Martin Scartel and Alexandre Epureanu and scored with a header.
In the second half, the guests had more control of the ball in an attempt to at least equalize, but never managed to create a dangerous situation in front of Mert Günok’s door.
Within minutes, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made several changes, replacing Mata, Van de Beek, Rashford and Wan-Bisaka at the expense of Cavani, Pogba, Greenwood and Fossou-Mensa.
In the end, however, this did not lead to anything significant and Istanbul Basekshehir congratulated themselves on their first Champions League victory.
