Galatasaray drew 1-1 with Lokomov Moscow in Istanbul for the fourth game of the fifth group of the Europa League and missed the opportunity to escape the standings, waiting for Lazio-Marseille at night and leaving the Russians at 2 points.
The match
The Turks came in strong and “closed” the Russians in their home, creating some opportunities, but not the big phase in the opponent’s home. Thus, in the 43rd minute, Fenguli took matters into his own hands and with an amazing fake shot from outside the area, he achieved an impressive 1-0 for the “chim bom”.
In the first quarter of the replay, Galata pressed for the second goal, but then the former Soviets took the initiative and began to push the home of the 2000 UEFA Cup winners. Smolov warned in the 70 ‘and 73’, after nice combination of the guests, Maradisvili returned to an empty home in Kamanos who equalized. Both teams lost one opportunity in the next ten minutes and Kirk another for Lokomotiv in 84 ‘. Smolov continued the “dance” of missed opportunities in 87 ‘and the match ended in a draw.
