Victor Osimhen delivered a standout creative performance in Galatasaray’s thrilling 2-2 draw against Eyupspor at Rams Park. Despite not scoring, the Nigerian striker played a pivotal role, showcasing exceptional vision and playmaking skills.
Eyupspor opened the scoring in the 13th minute, but Galatasaray leveled before halftime.
Osimhen’s highlight came early in the second half when his perfectly timed assist allowed Roland Sallai to give Galatasaray a 2-1 lead.
His contributions included generating four chances, three key passes, and narrowly missing a goal with one of his six attempts striking the woodwork.
However, Eyupspor equalized in the 71st minute, and both teams failed to find a winner in the closing stages.
The result leaves Galatasaray with critical points dropped in their title race, as Fenerbahçe trails by six points with a game in hand.
Osimhen’s four assists this season underline his importance, even as the team faces mounting pressure.
