For Okan Buruk’s wards, the game started as badly as possible, the hosts opened the scoring in the 8th minute thanks to Ellingsen.

In just four minutes, Galatasaray changed the result after the success of Oliveira (25) and Icardi (29).

In addition, the Turks had a goal disallowed before half-time when VAR ruled Akgun offside.

Immediately after the break, Molde equalized again through Haugen in the 55th minute as Galata began their pursuit of the winning goal.
