Goals from Can Uzun, Jonathan Burkardt and Ansgar Knauff were accompanied by own goals from the Galatasaray centre-back pairing. Davinson Sánchez and Wilfried Singo were both unfortunate with their defensive errors, but this takes nothing away from Frankfurt’s dominance.
But it was Galatasaray who had opened the scoring in the eighth minute. Yunus Akgün had received a threaded pass from Leroy Sané and fired past Frankfurt goalkeeper Michael Zetterer to get the provisional lead.
Finally, Dino Toppmöller’s side surpassed PSG at the top of the standings after they beat Atalanta 4-0 on Wednesday evening. The Italian side will be accompanied by Galatasaray at the bottom of the league.
Galatasaray will have to face Liverpool in their next Champions League outing after a dismal opening fixture to their European campaign. Whereas, Frankfurt will travel to Spain to play Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid.
