Galatasaray vs Samsunspor: Osimhen ends drought with stunning brace to save Gala from late scare
Victor Osimhen is definitely back in lethal form! The Super Eagles star scored a stunning brace against Samsunspor, securing a vital 3-2 win for Galatasaray despite a nervy late defensive scare.
His explosive performance on Friday evening ended all doubts about his goal-scoring readiness ahead of the upcoming AFCON 2025.
The match started brightly for Galatasaray as Sane made a dynamic run down the right flank, linking up with Torreira before unleashing a powerful low shot that put the hosts ahead 1-0.
Building on this momentum, Sané delivered a precise pass into the penalty area, where Osimhen coolly finished with a stylish one-shot strike to double the lead and showcase his clinical edge.
Samsunspor fought back fiercely, scoring a late equalizer that sparked panic in the Galatasaray defense.
Yet, Osimhen’s determination shone through as he snatched a spectacular acrobatic winner deep into added time, rescuing the Lions from a potential draw and securing the crucial three points.
