On Tuesday evening, Galatasaray supporters did everything they could to inspire Victor Osimhen and his teammates. But FC Barcelona were simply too strong. Rodri left a message for the Turks.

Yesterday, FC Barcelona thrashed Galatasaray (4-1) on the second matchday of the Champions League. However, as always, the Turkish side could count on the fervent support of Rams Park. At the stadium, there is still “an incredible atmosphere.”

The FC Barcelona midfielder made a confession. “It was a difficult match; it’s always difficult when you come here, to this stadium. (…) The atmosphere? I have never experienced anything like it. A crazy atmosphere, so much noise… It was a superb football match. Players like me, who have played a lot of matches, are generally no longer surprised. But today, I was. The environment, the supporters, the way they sing and support the team. They are an incredible crowd,” said the former Manchester City player in the mixed zone.
