Lemina header gives Gala first leg lead over Liverpool
Galatasaray secured a 1-0 home win over Liverpool in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash thanks to an early header from Mario Lemina.
Despite early pressure from Liverpool, Lemina put the Turkish side ahead after seven minutes, diving to head home after Victor Osimhen nodded a corner back across goal.
Just after the hour mark, Osimhen tapped the ball into an open net, but Liverpool were spared as Baris Alper Yilmaz had been offside in the build-up.
Liverpool will host Galatasaray in the second leg on 18 March.
