Galatasaray boss praises Barcelona players after 4-1 Champions League defeat: ‘They are like machines’

Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk praised Barcelona's quality after Hansi Flick's side recovered from an early setback to secure a 4-1 Champions League victory in Istanbul. The Turkish side initially threatened to make life difficult for Barcelona, but struggled to maintain their approach as the visitors took control after the break. The manager felt his players relied too heavily on long balls instead of recognising when they could retain possession and build their attacks. "While we're playing, we also need to analyse the game well. The players need to better understand the game and experience it.
