Osimhen Brace Sinks Samsunspor, Lifts Galatasaray to League Top

Victor Osimhen has continued his goalscoring form for Galatasaray, hitting another brace in the club’s 3-2 win over Samsunspor in their Turkish Super League encounter at the RAMS Park on Sunday.

The 25-year-old Nigerian settled the top-of-the-table clash between Galatasaray, the table toppers, and Samsunspor, unlikely league challengers.

It took Osimhen just four minutes to put his side ahead with a well-placed header, planting Lucas Torreira’s cross into the top corner to the fans’ delight.

Samsunspor did equalize early in the second half but Osimhen restored Galatasaray’s lead five minutes later, with the former Lille striker pouncing the goalkeeper’s failure to claim a cross to head the loose ball into the net at the far post.
