Joan Garcia started relieved, acting as an effective sweeper to counter Osimhen's long balls and comfortably saved the first two Turkish shots before the disallowed 2-0 gave him breathing space. Eric Garcia suffered early against Leao's pace but recovered, conceding no further runs. Cubarsi had a shaky first half but regained his usual level after the break. Gerard Martín endured the post‑1‑0 turbulence but returned to his proper course. Cancelo proved his long‑range confidence, hitting the cross‑bar shot that led to the crucial 1‑1 after an unfortunate slip on the 1‑0 play. Rodri’s experience steadied the side when the game spiraled, while Pedri’s intelligence and calm helped dictate tempo. Fermín was hyperactive in ball recovery and grew influential with the ball, heading in the 1‑2. Lamine Yamal delivered a second‑half masterpiece worthy of a Ballon d’Or, creating chances with inventive passes, rosca crosses and a rabona‑style dribble before the 1‑3. Dani Olmo’s false‑9 role brought pressure and an assist for the 1‑1. Gordon’s relentless runs and pressure work culminated in the 1‑3 after a Lamine move, and Gabriel Jesus, despite limited minutes, kept improving each touch and assisted the 1‑4.
