Diaoune struck again in the 39th minute, this time set up by Hákon Haraldsson, to put the home side 2-1 ahead. Galatasaray levelled before the break, though: Aleksey Batrakov scored in the 44th minute from a Roland Sallai assist, and the sides went in at 2-2.
The second half belonged to the visitors. Nabil Bentaleb turned the ball into his own net in the 52nd minute to give Galatasaray the lead, and Victor Osimhen added a fourth in the 61st minute after Barış Alper Yılmaz's pass.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Lille 42%, the draw 28%, Galatasaray 30%. It finished Lille 2–4 Galatasaray.
Home advantage gives Lille a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, 1745 to 1716, Lille's home advantage is the main reason we give them 42%, though Galatasaray's habit of controlling the ball pulls some way back towards them. The draw sits at 28%, close to the usual rate between sides this level, nudged up slightly by that ball control and down a touch by typical scoring in both teams' recent games.
Why Lille in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1745 to 1716. Sides this close won 45.8% of 13,755 home games (draw 27.7%, visitors 26.5%).
Why only 42%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Galatasaray hold 6 more possession points (57 to 51 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 39.8% across 5,509 games, from 44.0% when styles were level.
Why the draw at 28%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.7%. These teams' recent games average 3.1 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.8% of 25,274. The control factor adds 1.4 points to the draw.
