SUPER Eagles striker Victor Osimhen got his first two goals for Galatasaray tonight as they blew a three-goal lead to draw 3-3 with Kasimpasa in the Turkish Super Lig.

Having registered three assists for the club in his first three matches, Osimhen finally scored in the 20th minute of the clash at the RAMS Park.

After his first goal, Osimhen did a cheeky celebration, unveiling a shirt in Galatasaray colours with ‘FINALLY’ emblazoned across the back.

The 25-year-old Nigeria international completed his brace in the 28th minute, and six minutes later, Mauro Icardi added the third to give Galatasaray a 3-0 lead.

However, Galatasaray lost their heads and allowed the visitors to fight back and earn 3-3 draw.

Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo was on the opposing side to Osimhen, coming on to replace Mortadha Ben Quanes in the 30th minute for Kasimpasa.

It is the fourth substitute appearance for the 30-year-old centre-back this season after starting Kasimpasa’s opening match, a 3-2 defeat to Konyaspor in August. He was not in the squad for the last two games.

Galatasaray remain top of the league with 19 points, while Kasimpasa are 12th, 12 points adrift.
