Icardi put Galatasaray ahead with nine minutes to go when he found the net to cap off a fast break. The striker finished low into the centre of the goal after combining with Davinson Sánchez.
Victory for Okan Buruk"s side also came courtesy of goals from Wilfried Zaha and Kerem Aktürkoglu, with Rasmus Højlund scoring both for the home team.

Højlund had broken the deadlock for Manchester United with the first of his brace in the 17th minute when he steered home a header following a fast break.

Højlund, finding the net following a solo run, then edged Manchester United back in front with his second goal in the 67th minute. It was 2-2 after Baris Yilmaz set up Aktürkoglu to equalise four minutes later. Galatasaray went in search of a winner and it duly arrived 10 minutes later from Icardi.
