Osimhen’s brace seals Super Lig title for Galatasaray

Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen scored twice as Galatasaray defeated Antylyaspor 4-2 to clinch the Turkish Super Lig title on Saturday.

Galatasaray needed a win to emerge champions of Turkey but it was Antylyaspor that took the lead just before the half time break through Dikmen’s strike.

Galatasaray responded well after the break when Gabon winger, Lemina, found the back of the net in the 56th minute.

Atalyaspor restored their lead in 62 minutes through Dikmen’s second goal. But Osimhen scored two goals in the 66 and 88 minutes to give his side the lead.

The victory seals the Super Lig title for Galatasaray for the fourth time consecutively with Osimhen involved in the last two.

The Nigerian striker has scored 61 goals in 75 games for the Turkish giants since he joined the club from Napoli.
