Galatasaray 1-0 Man Utd – Champions League – 20th November 2012

Having already qualified for the knockout stages of the competition, Fergie rested a number of his big name players for this trip to ‘HELLLLLLL’!!!!

Anyway, youngster Nick Powell produced an impressive performance in the centre of midfield and came closest to scoring for the Red Devils, only for his header to come back off the woodwork.

Ultimately, it was the home side who would net the only goal of the game, courtesy of the in-form Burak Yilmaz, who nodded home a corner early in the second-half. United had Anders Lindegaard to thank on a number of occasions as Gala came close to increasing their advantage, but ultimately they’d have to be content with a 1-0 win.

That victory sees the Turkish giants go second in Group H, level with Cluj on points (United are five clear on 12), with everything to play for on the last match-day.

    can we now talk of a galatasaray-curse for manchester, or was this match so inconsequential for man-u that they didn’t care at all?

    @ulas, little more than a training exercise on hostile ground, really. Let Jones stretch his legs, see how Powell plays with the other lads, blah, blah, blah.

    Galatasary are my new heroes. I live in Asia and every retard who THINKS he knows football is a Man Utd fan. These jerks are the most annoying, obnoxious socially-challenged self-obsessed saddoes you will ever meet. Anything that puts a frown on their faces makes me smile.

    Oh and Alex, HELL isn’t a place where Man U lose – Hell is me looking at your smug, ugly face on the internet and NOT being able to do anything about it – like punching you right in your mouth!!!
