UCL: Osimhen scored a brace in Galatasaray’s 3-1 win over Bodø/Glimt.
Glamtush reports that Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen scored a brace in Galatasaray’s 3-1 victory over Bodø/Glimt in a Champions League match on Wednesday.
The Super Eagle striker scored twice in the first half, opening the scoring in the 3rd minute with a clinical right-footed finish from a Mario Lemina pass, and doubling the lead in the 33rd minute after capitalising on a defensive error by Bodø/Glimt’s Fredrik André Bjørkan.
Yunus Akgün added a third goal in the 60th minute, while Andreas Helmersen scored a late consolation for Bodø/Glimt in the 74th minute.
Osimhen’s brace marked his seventh consecutive European match with a goal, a historic feat for Galatasaray, and brought his Champions League tally to 11 goals. The win keeps Galatasaray competitive in the group stage.
Osimhen’s impressive form came on the heels of his hat-trick with the Super Eagles in Nigeria’s 4-0 win over Benin Republic in a 2026 World Cup qualifier.
