Victor Osimhen cemented his place in Galatasaray’s history books with a record-breaking performance against Bodø/Glimt. The Nigerian striker’s remarkable brace during Wednesday’s UEFA Champions League clash secured an unprecedented achievement for the Turkish giants.
Historic European Milestone
Osimhen found the net just three minutes into the match before adding a second goal in the 33rd minute. This incredible performance established a new club record for consecutive European matches scored in.
Sustained Scoring Excellence
The 26-year-old’s scoring streak extends across seven European fixtures. It began during last season’s Europa League campaign. Victimized clubs included Tottenham Hotspur, Dynamo Kyiv, Ajax, and AZ Alkmaar.
This season, Osimhen maintained his form against elite competition. He scored against Liverpool before his decisive double versus Bodø/Glimt.
Fan Favorite in Istanbul
Since joining Galatasaray, Osimhen has become indispensable to manager Okan Buruk’s system. His powerful playing style combines speed and clinical finishing. These qualities have endeared him to the club’s passionate supporters.
This record confirms Osimhen’s status among Europe’s most feared forwards. It further strengthens his growing legacy in Turkish football.
