Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has finally found the back of the net for his new club, Galatasaray, in spectacular fashion. In a thrilling match against Kasimpasa, the Super Eagles star scored two goals in less than three minutes, officially opening his goal account for the Turkish giants.
The highly anticipated goals came as a relief to both Osimhen and Galatasaray fans, as the forward had yet to score since his arrival at the club earlier in the season. Despite showing his talent in previous matches with three assists, Osimhen had struggled to find the goal. His breakthrough moment came in the second half of the match against Kasimpasa, where he made his mark within a few short minutes, igniting the stadium with excitement.
After his first goal, Osimhen celebrated by revealing a Galatasaray jersey with the word “finally” written on it. The message was clear: Osimhen had ended his goal drought, much to the delight of his teammates and supporters. His quick double strike put Galatasaray in a commanding position during the match and signaled the beginning of what fans hope will be a successful spell at the club.
The 25-year-old striker joined Galatasaray from Napoli earlier in the summer transfer window, where he was one of the top scorers in Italy’s Serie A. His move to Turkey was seen as a major coup for Galatasaray, who are aiming to reclaim the Turkish league title. Though Osimhen had not scored in his first few appearances, he had impressed with his work rate and ability to create chances for his teammates.
Before the game against Kasimpasa, Osimhen had assisted in three goals, contributing to Galatasaray’s strong start to the season. His two goals in quick succession have now silenced any doubts surrounding his form and cemented his status as a key player for the club moving forward.
Osimhen’s performance in this match is expected to boost his confidence as Galatasaray continues its push in both domestic and European competitions. Fans will be eagerly watching to see if this is the beginning of a scoring streak for the Nigerian international, who has been widely regarded as one of the most promising strikers in Europe.
