In the Champions League, in the final round of the qualifiers, the Turkish Galatasaray and the Swiss Young Boys will meet each other in the 2nd leg in Istanbul on Tuesday at 22:00. The first leg ended in the Young Boys winning 3-2.
In the match played last week at Stadion Wankdorf, in the Swiss capital of Bern, we saw a real goal celebration as the even struggle ended with a 3-2 victory for the hosts. However, based on expected goals (xG), Galatasaray created perhaps a bit more real scoring chances, taking that statistic to their name at some services that offer xG-data by 2-2, or 2-3 or so. All in all, there were around 20 shots for both teams, and it was an entertaining affair, I can see both teams scoring also on Tuesday in Istanbul. And look at the shot map, both teams were constantly in the attacking box!
The opening hit of the match was already seen in the third minute when Young Boys took a 1-0 lead after Filip Ugrinic freed Joel Monteiro with his pass in the box to score and the 25-year-old Swiss striker made no mistake but delivered the ball behind the back of the 38-year-old Uruguayan veteran goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, who started in Galatasaray's goal.
David von Ballmoos, 29, who had a knock in the Young Boys' goal earlier in the opening period, tried to continue playing for a few minutes but had to be replaced after a good half hour of play, and his Swiss compatriot Marvin Keller, 22, went between the posts of the hosts.
The extra time of the first half was played until the fourth minute, until Silvere Ganvoula found the ball with his header over the defenders after sending Monteiro and the man was able to shoot his second shot, moving the hosts to a 2-0 lead at the break.
The second period was already in a good phase when Galatasaray received a corner kick and from the corner given by Lucas Torreira, Michy Batshuayi was able to reduce the score to 1-2 for the visitors in the 66th minute. Batshuayi was also organizing Galatasaray's equaliser, finding Kerem Aktürkoglu on the edge of the box, who was able to fire into the bottom left corner of the 2-2 equalizer in the 72nd minute. A good ten minutes later, one of Galatasaray's defenders, Abdülkerim Bardakci, carelessly played the ball with his hand in his own defensive area inside the box, and referee Daniel Siebert was awake after hearing the confirmation from the VAR room in his earpiece, and first showed Bardakci the second card of the evening, then showing a red card. From the spot that followed, Ugrinic scored a 3-2 winning goal for the hosts in the 86th minute.
Among Galatasaray's defenders, Bardakci is suspended. Colombian defender Davinson Sanchez, who also missed the opening part due to a muscle injury, will have to miss the latter game as well. The likely replacement for Bardakc is 21-year-old Metehan Baltaci, who in his previous four games has had to get used to the role of substitute without getting a second of playing time in those games.
Possible opening roster of Galatasaray (4-2-3-1): Muslera; Jelert, Nelsson, Baltaci, Köhn; Torreira, Gabriel Sara; Yilmaz, Mertens, Akturkoglu; Icardi.
Among the Young Boys players, the Gambian defender Saidy Janko and the Guinean forward Facinet Conte will be out. Polish wizard Lukasz Lakomy will probably still be sidelined from Young Boys' midfield as well.
Possible starting roster for Young Boys (4-4-2): von Ballmoos; Blum, Camara, Zoukrou, Hadjam; Monteiro, Niasse, Lauper, Colley; Ganvoula, Ugrinic.
There are all signs this will also be a high-scoring game like the 1st leg. Galatasaray has become famous especially in the Euro arenas for the fact that it not only knows how to score a lot of goals but also for its infamously weak defensive play. That is only emphasized even more now, where Galatasaray have to chase, and when they have to open up their game even more, Young Boys gets chances to counterstrike and cannot help but take advantage of them as well.

在欧冠预选赛的最后一轮比赛中，土耳其加拉塔萨雷队和瑞士青年男孩队将于周二22:00在伊斯坦布尔进行第2回合的交锋。第一回合以少年队3-2获胜告终。
上周在瑞士首都伯尔尼的万克多夫球场举行的比赛中，我们看到了一场真正的进球庆祝活动，双方势均力敌，东道主以3-2获胜。然而，基于预期进球(xG)，加拉塔萨雷创造了更多真正的得分机会，在一些提供xG数据的服务中，他们以2-2或2-3左右的比分将这一统计数据命名。总而言之，两队都有大约20次射门，这是一场有趣的比赛，我可以看到两队在周二的伊斯坦布尔也都有进球。再看看射门图，两支球队都一直在进攻区!
比赛开场第3分钟，乌格里尼奇在禁区内解围蒙泰罗破门，25岁的瑞士前锋毫无失误，在38岁的乌拉圭老将穆斯雷拉的背后将球传给加拉塔萨雷，拉开了比赛的序幕。
29岁的大卫·冯·巴尔穆斯在开场的早些时候打入了年轻男孩队的球门，他试图继续比赛几分钟，但在半个小时的精彩比赛后不得不被换下，他的瑞士同胞、22岁的马文·凯勒在东道主的门柱之间出场。
上半场的加时赛一直持续到第四分钟，直到西尔弗·甘沃拉在送出蒙泰罗后头球破门，蒙泰罗第二次射门，主队在中场休息时以2-0领先。
第66分钟，加拉塔萨雷接到了一个角球，巴舒亚伊在卢卡斯·托雷拉开出的角球中为客队将比分追成1-2，下半场已经进入了一个不错的阶段。巴舒亚伊还组织了加拉塔萨雷队扳平比分的比赛，他在禁区边缘找到了克雷姆·阿克塔<e:1>·rkoglu，后者在第72分钟将球射入左下角，将比分扳平。整整十分钟后，加拉塔萨雷的一名后卫巴尔达克奇(abddlkerim Bardakci)在禁区内自己的防守区内不小心用手触球，主裁判丹尼尔·西伯特(Daniel Siebert)在耳机里听到VAR室的确认后醒来，首先向巴尔达克奇出示了当晚的第二张牌，然后出示了红牌。在随后的第86分钟，乌格林尼奇为主队打进了一粒3-2致胜的进球。
在加拉塔萨雷的后卫中，巴尔达克奇被禁赛。哥伦比亚后卫达文森·桑切斯(Davinson Sanchez)也因肌肉受伤错过了开场部分，他也将缺席后一场比赛。可能取代巴尔达克奇的是21岁的梅特汉·巴尔塔西，他在之前的四场比赛中已经习惯了替补的角色，没有得到一秒的上场时间。
加拉塔萨雷可能的首发名单(4-2-3-1):穆斯莱拉;jeelert, Nelsson, Baltaci, Köhn;托雷拉，加布里埃尔·萨拉;伊尔马兹、默滕斯、阿克特科格鲁;Icardi。
在青年男孩队的球员中，冈比亚后卫扬科和几内亚前锋孔特将缺席。波兰奇才卢卡斯·拉科米很可能也不会出现在少年队的中场。
少年队可能的首发名单(4-4-2):冯·巴尔莫斯;布卢姆、卡马拉、祖克鲁、哈达姆;蒙泰罗，尼亚斯，劳帕，科利;Ganvoula Ugrinic。
种种迹象表明，这也将是一场像首回合一样的高分比赛。加拉塔萨雷之所以出名，尤其是在欧洲赛场上，不仅因为他们知道如何进球，还因为他们臭名昭著的弱防守。这一点在加拉塔萨雷不得不追逐的地方更加突出，当他们不得不更多地展开比赛时，年轻的男孩们得到了反击的机会，也情不自禁地利用了他们。
