MU suffered its first defeat in this year’s C1 Cup, with a stormy away trip to Istanbul’s stadium – a team that had not scored any points after two matches.
With home field advantage, Istanbul played proactively and was the team that took the lead.

In this match, the Turkish team not only `opened an account` in this year’s C1 Cup but also did twice as much.
In the 40th minute, from a careless loss of the ball by Juan Mata, Istanbul organized a very fast attack and was still the mark of Demba Ba when this veteran striker had a delicate leg lift, helping his teammates comfortably cross the ice.
It also took Man Utd only three minutes to equalize 1-2 thanks to Martial’s goal.

Unexpectedly falling to the team at the bottom of the group, MU gave Istanbul and the two remaining representatives of Group H, PSG and Leipzig, a chance to chase.
Goals: Demba Ba (13′), Visca (40′) – Martial (43′)
