Batrakov Scores His First Süper Lig Goal Against Konyaspor

Galatasaray beat Konyaspor 4-0 at the Konya Büyükşehir Stadium in Week 10 of the Süper Lig. Russian midfielder Aleksey Batrakov, who is 21 years old, contributed to his team with both a goal and an assist.

Victor Osimhen opened the scoring in the 12th minute. In the 28th minute, Yunus Akgün finished a pass from Batrakov to double the lead. In the 49th minute, Batrakov ran the length of the pitch on a counterattack and fired a shot into the near corner for his team's third goal. In the 55th minute, Rafael Leão converted a penalty to make it 4-0.

This goal was Batrakov's first in the Turkish Süper Lig. Before this, he had only scored in the Champions League. His goals against Barcelona and Lille were among the most notable Galatasaray moments in Europe this season.

Russian media also followed the performance closely. Sport Mail wrote that the player got past a hard challenge and left the Konyaspor defence stranded. The win was an important result that also showed the form of the yellow-and-red side this season.
