Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen continued his fine run of form for Galatasaray, contributing an assist in Sunday’s 2-1 triumph over Başakşehir away from home.

The match began with a physical tone, with referee Atilla Karaoğlan issuing yellow cards to multiple players within the first 40 minutes. However, Victor Osimhen’s skill shifted the momentum, as he cleverly flicked the ball to Bariş Asper Yilmaz, who scored in the 42nd minute, giving Galatasaray the lead.

Right after the half-time, Krzysztof Piatek netted the equalizer for Başakşehir with a composed strike, but Galatasaray quickly regained the lead as Bariş Asper Yilmaz scored his second goal of the match.

Despite Başakşehir’s relentless pursuit of another equalizer, Galatasaray’s defense held firm, allowing them to claim a hard-fought 2-1 victory and secure all three points.

The win keeps Galatasaray undefeated in the Turkish Super Lig, maintaining their grip on first place with an 11-point cushion over second-placed Fenerbache.

Next up, Galatasaray will travel to face Hatayspor on Friday, looking to extend their unbeaten run and tighten their grip on top spot in the Turkish Super Lig.
