Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, was full of joy after Galatasaray cruised to a dominant 5-1 victory over Eyupspor in Sunday’s Turkish Super Lig encounter.
The Nigerian forward found the back of the net and also provided an assist in the comprehensive win.
Osimhen’s goal marked his 22nd in the league this season for the Yellow and Reds.
The 26-year-old has now amassed an impressive 31 goals and seven assists in 36 appearances across all competitions under manager Okan Buruk this campaign.
The result sees Galatasaray strengthen their position at the top of the table with 80 points, keeping a firm five-point cushion over rivals Fenerbahçe.
Speaking to SPOR after the match, Osimhen said, “I’m very happy because we won. Winning this match was very important. We needed more points. I’m very happy to have contributed with one goal and one assist. I’m also happy for Morata.”
He added, “These points are very important on the path to the championship. As Galatasaray, we are focused on ourselves and approach each match separately. We will look forward to the next match.”
Galatasaray will now turn their attention to Saturday’s fixture, where they will welcome Sivasspor.
