Alexey Batrakov, who plays in the position of midfielder for the Turkish Galatasaray, wrote his name in the statistics of Russian football: he was the first compatriot in six years who managed to score goals in two consecutive Champions League matches.
As previously reported, in the third round of the general stage, Batrakov hit the gates of the French Lille, who completed the meeting with a score of 4: 2 in their favor, and in the second round, the Russian noted the capture of the gate of the Spanish Barcelona, which won 4: 1. Before Batrakov, the last Russian player with such an achievement was Anton Miranchuk: as part of the Moscow Lokomotiv, he scored in games with the German Bayern (1: 2) and the Spanish Atletico (1: 1).
It is worth recalling that since 2022, Russian clubs and national teams have been deprived of the opportunity to participate in international tournaments – the reason was the situation in Ukraine.
