The Istanbul club did. The Burak players played a quality first half, and generally did not make as many mistakes as in the first two games against PSG and Leipzig (both games 0: 2). In the 13th minute, the hosts made a brilliant counterattack, Vishca knocked out the ball and it resulted in a pass to Demba Ba, who escaped the defender, went toe-to-toe with the goalkeeper and shot straight on target.
“Man United” combined and created chances, attacked and shot a lot on goal, but the quality of the Mankunian attacks left much to be desired. I felt both the understatement of the opponent and the lack of tuning, many one on one duels were lost by the guests. And “Basaksehir” knew how to make some very interesting counterattacks and scored the second goal.
Turuc fought with Mata, stole from him and made a cold pass to the penalty area, Ba ran past and Visca shot without a chance for the goalkeeper – 2: 0. In many respects an indicative episode, the hosts played until the end, they tried to squeeze to the maximum of each situation and were rewarded for perseverance.
True, “Manchester United” quickly played a goal: Shaw hung from the left edge and Martial hit his head in the far corner. There was a feeling that Solskher’s protections would add and definitely put pressure on Bashakshehir. The great Englishman made quite significant combinations, but could not realize their possibilities. Fernandes, Mata, Maguire did not score from points of view. The people of Istanbul withstood several massive assaults and they were not wrong. We can say that the locals deserved the three points, although in the second half they looked weaker.
Meanwhile, the intrigue in Group H lives on, “Bashakshehir” remains last, but only three points separate the Turks from the same “MU”. Much will be known after the rivals’ second game at Old Trafford, but for now it is too early to make any predictions. After the November break for international games, clubs may not look their best.
