Two goals in the first half

The league leaders made another fast start in the second half. In the 49th minute, Batrakov moved into the penalty area from the left after a pass from Sara and scored Galatasaray’s third goal. The fourth arrived six minutes later. After Rayyan Baniya’s challenge on Leao, referee Cihan Aydın reviewed the incident on the VAR monitor and awarded a penalty. Leao converted from the spot to make it 4-0.

Both teams made several substitutions during the remaining minutes, but the score did not change.
