Antony’s pass passed through the control of two Galatasaray players and sent the ball to Dalot.

The Portuguese defender quickly moved to the 5m5 area before making a cross to bring the ball inside.

Although Dalot’s cross did not find any Man Utd players, it still caused Galatasaray’s defense to immediately encounter turmoil.

The ball touched a player on the home team, and he was unable to react quickly enough to make an effective clearance.

Very quickly, the ball found its way to Facundo Pellistri, who was facing a very wide shooting angle and completely unmarked.

Clearly, the Uruguayan striker had enough space and time to refine his finishing and help Man Utd find the fourth goal.

However, in the end, Pellistri’s shot brought the ball to the right position of goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, directly causing Man Utd to lose a “ten” goal against Galatasaray.

If Pellistri had scored, Man Utd would most likely have left with 3 points in hand because the remaining time was too little for Galatasaray to make a comeback. Now, if they want to advance to the Champions League, not only must they defeat Bayern Munich, the Red Devils’ fate also depends on the confrontation between Galatasaray and Copenhagen in the final match.
