Galatasaray, eliminated by Young Boys, bid farewell to the Champions League.

Galatasaray hosted Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League play-off round second leg. The yellow-reds, who lost the first match in Switzerland 3-2, were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League by losing 1-0 to their opponent in their home match. Cimbom will continue in the UEFA Europa League.

GALATASARAY, PENALTY EXPECTED IN THE FIRST SECONDS

In the first seconds of the match, Mauro Icardi, who met Köhn's pass behind the defense, fell to the ground after Zoukrou's intervention from behind. Argentine star, along with the whole stadium, also expected a penalty. Galatasaray's penalty expectation was not met by the Norwegian referee Espen Eskas. Shortly after the position, Eskas spoke with VAR and stated that the position was not a penalty.

YOUNG BOYS' GOAL DISALLOWED FOR OFFSIDE

Young Boys found the goal in the 31st minute with a corner kick. Colley, who found the ball in front of him after Ganvoula's header hit the post, managed to put the ball into the net. However, this goal was not valid due to offside. With no goals in the remaining part of the first half, the score remained 0-0 at halftime.

FLAG RAISED AFTER KAAN'S GOAL

Galatasaray, who intensified their attacks in the second half, found the goal they were looking for with Kaan Ayhan in the 55th minute from a set piece. However, the assistant referee raised the flag immediately after Kaan's goal went into the net. This goal was not counted due to offside.

THE ONLY GOAL OF THE MATCH FROM VIRGINIUS

While Galatasaray was looking for a goal that would at least take the tie to extra time in the final part of the match, the visiting team Young Boys found the goal with Alan Virginius in the 87th minute on a counterattack and took a 1-0 lead.

MUSLERA RECEIVED A RED CARD

Galatasaray captain Muslera received a red card for unsportsmanlike behavior towards the opponent who celebrated the goal. After this card, Günay Güvenç, who came on for Kerem Aktürkoğlu, guarded the goal in the remaining minutes.

CIMBOM ELIMINATED FROM THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

Galatasaray, just like throughout the match, failed to convert many clear opportunities in the short remaining time. Thus, the yellow-reds, who lost 1-0 on the field, were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League. Cimbom had also lost the first leg away match 3-2.
