Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen delivered a phenomenal performance for Galatasaray, securing a dominant 3-1 victory over Bodo/Glimt and simultaneously etching his name into the club's history books. The Nigerian striker's brilliant brace not only spearheaded Galatasaray's impressive win but also marked a historic achievement, as he became the first player in the club's rich history to score in seven consecutive European ties, surpassing the record previously held by Turkish icon Burak Yılmaz.

The Champions League match saw Osimhen in red-hot form from the outset. He opened the scoring just three minutes into the game, capitalizing on early defensive disarray from the visitors. His relentless pressing and formidable movement continued to trouble Bodo/Glimt's backline throughout the first half. After being denied twice by goalkeeper Haikin, Osimhen struck again in the 33rd minute, expertly punishing a poor backpass from Fredrik André Bjørkan by rounding the keeper and slotting home his second goal of the night.

Galatasaray's superiority continued into the second half. Osimhen once again proved decisive, dispossessing Haitam Aleesami to set up Yunus Akgün for Galatasaray's third goal, effectively sealing the victory. Although Bodo/Glimt managed a late consolation goal through Andreas Helmersen's header, it did little to alter the outcome of the match, which highlighted Galatasaray's formidable form. This triumph marked Galatasaray's 21st win in 23 matches across all competitions, while simultaneously ending Bodo/Glimt's five-game unbeaten European run.

Following his record-setting display, Osimhen exhibited profound humility, insisting that his teammates deserved the credit for his achievements. "It was a very important match. I want to congratulate my teammates," he stated, per T24. "Thank you, everyone; I'm not breaking these records alone. We'll continue to build on this momentum. I've won two matches thanks to my teammates; I haven't won alone. I'd like my other teammates to win too. I want to help the team with my goals and assists, or if that doesn't work out, I want to help with my fighting." He also noted that this victory, alongside a previous triumph over Liverpool where he scored the winner, contributed to Galatasaray's strong position in their Champions League group.

The significance of Osimhen's performance was not lost on Galatasaray's social media team, who enthusiastically celebrated his brilliance. They posted viral captions such as "Victor Osimhen’s finishing though 🤯. Hang it in the Louvre, but don’t let them steal it pls," humorously referencing a recent Louvre robbery. During the match, the club even lauded him as "the best striker in the world right now," solidifying his status as a pivotal and historic figure for the Turkish giants.
