Flick targets win at Galatasaray, even a 1-0 result
Barcelona arrive with nine straight wins and 39 goals, but will be without Raphinha in Istanbul.
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick is targeting a win when his team visits Galatasaray in the Champions League on Wednesday (13/10), and would not mind if the result is only 1-0. He said the match at Rams Park in Istanbul will be difficult because Galatasaray have a dangerous attack and the backing of highly pressuring supporters. Barcelona arrive with a perfect record: nine wins in all competitions this season and 39 goals. In their Champions League league phase opener, the Blaugrana also beat Feyenoord 5-1. However, Barcelona will be without Raphinha against the Turkish champions. Flick said the trip to Istanbul also marks the start of another demanding run of matches, including against Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
