Victor Osimhen reached a major milestone on Saturday, scoring his 50th goal in just 59 appearances for Galatasaray as the Turkish giants secured a 3–1 away victory over Karagümrük.
Galatasaray made a lightning start to the contest, with Gabriel Sara opening the scoring in the first minute to hand the visitors an early advantage.
However, Karagümrük responded strongly and drew level in the 27th minute through B. Kalaycı, ensuring the first half ended evenly poised at 1–1.
The visitors regained control shortly after the restart when Sara struck again in the 50th minute to restore Galatasaray’s lead.

Just five minutes later, Osimhen put the result beyond doubt, finishing clinically in the 55th minute to make it 3–1.
The goal was particularly significant for the Nigerian striker, as it marked his first since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations and underlined his importance to the Galatasaray attack.
Osimhen’s landmark strike capped a convincing performance from Galatasaray and further strengthened their push in the league, while the Super Eagles forward continues to justify his status as one of the most lethal attackers in Turkish football.
