Barcelona came from behind to beat Galatasaray 4-1 in the UEFA Champions League, scoring four goals after conceding in the 28th minute.

The Catalans dominated the match at Galatasaray's ground on Tuesday (October 13) night. The win extended their winning run to 10 matches this season, two in the Champions League and eight in La Liga.

Barcelona had 71 per cent possession. They took 22 shots and put 11 on target. Galatasaray had five shots, three of them on target.

Barcelona piled on the pressure from the start, but the hosts led in the 28th minute on a counterattack. Aleksei Batrakov's shot deflected off Joao Cancelo and went into Barcelona's net.

Barcelona drew level in the 43rd minute. Anthony Gordon, in an offside position, let Dani Olmo's shot go. Cancelo ran in from behind and found the far post.

They then scored twice between the 50th and 53rd minutes. Lamine Yamal set up both goals.

In the 50th minute, Fermin Lopez headed in Yamal's cross to make it 2-1. Three minutes later, Yamal beat a defender and pulled the ball back from near the right byline. Gordon scored from a tight angle.

It was Gordon's first Champions League goal for Barcelona. He has now scored in six straight matches for club and country.

Karim Adeyemi made it 4-1 in the 65th minute, seven minutes after coming on as a substitute. He shot low from Yamal's pass.
