Nigeria’s Victor Osimhen continued his red-hot form in front of goal, scoring twice as Galatasaray sealed a 3–1 victory over Bodo/Glimt in their UEFA Champions League encounter at RAMS Park on Wednesday night.
Osimhen opened the scoring just three minutes into the match, firing home from the edge of the box after a clever assist from Mario Lemina.
The 26-year-old doubled Galatasaray’s lead in the 33rd minute, pouncing on a defensive error to slot in his second of the night. The brace saw him make history as the second Galatasaray player ever to score in seven consecutive European games.
He was later substituted for Mauro Icardi in the 73rd minute.
Yunus Akgun added a third goal for the Turkish champions on the hour mark, while Andreas Helmersen scored Bodo/Glimt’s only goal of the game.
The win strengthens Galatasaray’s push for qualification to the Champions League knockout stages, with Osimhen once again proving decisive on the European stage.
