Let's talk for the first time todayChampions League: Galatasaray vs youngsters!
Galatasaray's performance in the first leg was undoubtedly disappointing.
But today, they will have something to be reckoned withTwo major enhancements: home field advantage and the return of the main team.
In the first round, a reader friend asked Xiaojiu about this game, and Xiaojiu felt that he couldn't talk about it, and it was difficult to judge.
Mainly because Galatasaray's performance on artificial turf is difficult to say.
For a team, if the home team is more unfavorable, the away team tends to be weaker, because it tends to rely on various conditions at home.
Galatasaray's home stadium is not ordinary.Last season, they had a terrifying home win rate of 94.74%, which was a record-breaking Turkish Super League record.
Fans often say that Turkey's home stadium is devilish, and Galatasaray's Ram Park may be the most devilish in Turkey's home stadium.
Last season, Galatasaray may have designed many tactics around their home stadium in order to break this home record, and it is inevitable that they will go to the away stadium.
Other natural turf pitches in the Tuchao have not played so well, encountering artificial turf such as young people...... Naturally, it's even more unaccustomed to kicking.
Now these newly modified artificial turf in Europe are very fast, which is very suitable for the style of Shining Brother, Molde, and young people who are crazy to play behind the opponent and play assault.
You see, Galatasaray, who are used to playing at home, were obviously caught off guard, being scored by a lightning strike in the opening three minutes, and then falling behind by two in the first half.
But while the situation is very unfavorable for Galatasaray.
But in the second half, after they adjusted their strategy and started to play steadily, they were able to recover two.
After all, the difference in value between the two sides is more than three times, and Galatasaray still has many experienced veterans such as Ziyech and Icardi, and if the young people can't make any strange moves, the gap will be obvious.
Today back to Galatasaray's home stadium of the Devils, Galatasaray is not used to playing artificial turf, do young people like natural turf very much? I'm afraid it will be the turn of the young people to suffer.
And, it was worth noting Galatasaray's second-half substitutions.
They brought on Michy Batshuayi and scored two in a row in less than ten minutes.
Why can't someone so strong start? Because the summer window has just arrived, the body and run-in are not up to the starting standard.
However, this time Batshuayi is up to the starting line-up, will Galatasaray be stronger?
In addition, they also have some famous players, such as Crystal Palace's all-time goalscorer Wang Zaha, who could not play in the first leg and can play tonight.
Even if it is a substitute, it will be a force to be reckoned with.
Because of the large number of personnel changes in the summer window, Galatasaray actually needs time to run in.
With another week after the first leg, Galatasaray may be in a better fit and the newcomers will be better at play, with their home stadium likely to be much better than the first leg.
So, all things considered, what do you think about whether Galatasaray can please the fans? The little ones will expect them to win at least two starts.
Well, for today's other competitions, Xiaojiu will still send you text analysis in the evening. If there is anything unclear, you can ask me, "Watch the ball and see clearly", we will see you soon!
