"Luciano Spalletti's side remarkably took the game beyond 90 minutes, recovering from their 5-2 first-leg deficit to level the tie at 5-5 in Turin, despite a red card to Lloyd Kelly, but their 3-2 win at Allianz Stadium was not enough to stay alive in the competition."
"The Bianconeri's hopes of a comeback then took a huge blow when Kelly was shown a second yellow, after an initial straight red was overturned by VAR, in the 49th minute after landing awkwardly on Baris Yilmaz."
"And Juve were made to rue that miss as Victor Osimhen showed great composure to finish through the legs of Mattia Perin at the end of the first half, before Yilmaz made sure of the aggregate victory in the 119th minute."

Despite Juventus equalizing the tie through Federico Gatti and Weston McKennie's header, Galatasaray secured victory through Victor Osimhen's composed finish and Baris Yilmaz's goal in the 119th minute, eliminating the Italian side.
