set plays back ?

Did Galatasaray learn anything from the opening leg? They were dominated from set plays back in Istanbul and Schalke have scored with their second of the match tonight.
I can't understand "set plays back". ?

As opposed to 'open play', 'set plays' (also 'set pieces') are corner-kicks and free-kicks which teams practice in training after working out various alternative strategies. back in Instanbul' means 'last week in the first leg in Instanbul'. Rover
