Super Eagles of Nigeria forward, Victor Osimhen, has shared his insights following an outstanding performance in Galatasaray’s commanding 3-0 victory over Antalyaspor.
The match highlighted Victor Osimhen’s incredible athleticism as he executed a remarkable overhead kick during stoppage time, a display of skill and precision that not only secured the win for his team but also left fans in awe.
This goal was particularly significant for the Nigerian international, marking his third strike of the season while donning the Yellow and Red colours of Galatasaray.

In an interview with the club’s official website, Victor Osimhen said, “The goal was an incredible one”.
“We secured three important points today, and I am very happy about that. I would like to dedicate this goal to our coach, Okan Buruk, since today [October 19] is his birthday.”
In light of Osimhen’s stunning goal, Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk took a moment to commend the striker’s exceptional talent, labelling the goal as pivotal in the match.
The coach said, “He only spent a short time on the field, but he made a significant impact. It would have been very disappointing if that goal had not counted.”
Buruk added, “It’s a fantastic goal that will certainly resonate not just domestically, but across Europe, shining a light on the quality of our league.”
