Victor Osimhen has expressed his satisfaction with Galatasaray’s 2-1 victory over Caykur Rizespor in the Turkish Super Lig, stating that the team fully deserved the three points.
The Nigerian forward scored twice in the intense match, helping secure another win for the Yellow and Reds.
Osimhen acknowledged the challenges Rizespor presented but emphasized that Galatasaray had earned the win. “It was a very tough match, but we deserved to win,” he said.
He went on to congratulate the entire team for their collective effort and also thanked the fans for their unwavering support, which he believes played a crucial role in boosting morale.
In a heartwarming moment, Galatasaray captain Fernando Muslera celebrated Osimhen’s winning goal by donning the forward’s mask, a gesture that Osimhen found touching.
“I had given my mask to celebrate with the fans, and when I returned, I saw Muslera had already put it on. He’s not just a great captain but an incredible person,” Osimhen remarked.
The striker also highlighted Muslera’s significant contribution to the victory, noting his crucial role throughout the match. Although Osimhen is resting his voice after a spirited performance, he reassured fans that he would soon recover, ready to continue Galatasaray’s impressive run.
