This marks the second occasion this season in which Osimhen has both scored and assisted in a single match, underlining his influence in the team’s attacking play. From the opening stages, he combined effectively with midfielders, stretching Alanyaspor’s defensive lines and helping create sustained offensive momentum.
The deadlock was finally broken late in the first half when defender Sacha Boey converted a close-range finish following a precise pass from midfield orchestrator Lucas Torreira, giving Galatasaray a 1-0 lead heading into halftime.
Alanyaspor struck back soon after the restart, with striker Steve Mounie heading home a cross from the right flank in the 49th minute to level the score at 1-1.
Galatasaray quickly regained the upper hand, as Torreira showcased his composure to finish a one-on-one situation in the 58th minute, restoring a 2-1 lead. Osimhen then capped off the win in the closing stages, capitalizing on a defensive miscue from goalkeeper Paulo Victor. Reacting swiftly to a loose ball inside the box, the Nigerian striker fired home confidently to seal the 3-1 victory.
The win strengthens Galatasaray’s position in the league standings, keeping them firmly in the race for domestic honours. Osimhen’s consistent performances have once again highlighted him as one of the standout forwards in the Turkish Super Lig this season.
