The Uruguayan striker had a fantastic chance to assist Manchester United defeat Galatasaray, but he wasted it.

Manchester United orchestrated a left flank attack in the ninetieth minute of the Galatasaray match.

When Anthony Martial saw that three home side players were stopping him, he chose to send the ball to Scott McTominay, who was going quite easily.

The Scottish midfielder then sent the ball to Antony.

The former Ajax player took it in stride and bided his time until Diogo Dalot entered the penalty area.

Two Galatasaray players were unable to stop Antony’s pass, which transferred the ball to Dalot.

The Portuguese defender advanced rapidly to the 5m5 zone and then crossed the ball inside.

Dalot’s cross caused instant havoc in Galatasaray’s defense even though it did not find any Man Utd players.

A player for the home team touched the ball, but he couldn’t move fast enough to clear the ball effectively.

The ball made its way to Facundo Pellistri fairly fast, who was unmarked and facing a very wide shooting angle.

The Uruguayan striker obviously had enough room and time to improve his finishing and assist Manchester United in scoring their fourth goal.

Ultimately, though, Pellistri’s effort put the ball in goalkeeper Fernando Muslera’s hands, directly costing Man Utd a “ten” goal against Galatasaray.

The likelihood is that Man Utd would have finished with three points in hand if Pellistri had scored because Galatasaray would not have had enough time left to mount a comeback. Now, in addition to beating Bayern Munich, the Red Devils’ destiny also rests on the outcome of the encounter between Galatasaray and Copenhagen in the championship round.
