back braces for Galatasaray

Victor Osimhen continued his blistering start to the new Süper Lig season, scoring twice and providing an assist as defending champions Galatasaray thrashed newly promoted Erzurumspor FK 4-0 in their second-week fixture at the Kazım Karabekir Stadium on Friday, further cementing his status as one of the most consistent forwards on the continent. Roland Sallai opened the scoring in the twelfth minute before Osimhen turned provider eight minutes later, teeing up Yunus Akgün to double Galatasaray’s advantage. The Super Eagles striker then got on the scoresheet himself right on the stroke of half-time, netting in first-half stoppage time to put the visitors three goals to the good at the break, before adding his second of the night in the 80th minute to complete his brace and put the result beyond any doubt.
