Führich reflects on missed turning point in Galatasaray defeat
Story updated
The story in brief
8-second readVfB Stuttgart winger Chris Führich believes his side had chances to change the course of Tuesday's Champions League defeat to Galatasaray, but admitted they ultimately failed to convert them.
From the source
Stuttgart suffered their first defeat of their Champions League campaign in Istanbul, with Aleksey Batrakov scoring twice in the opening 15 minutes to secure a 2-0 win for Galatasaray.
VfB had made an encouraging start, with Jamie Leweling striking both posts with the same effort after just eight minutes.
The visitors then improved considerably after the interval, and thought they had found a route back into the contest when Chris Führich found the net from range, only for his effort to be ruled out for an offside against Deniz Undav.
