Osimhen Scores As Galatasaray, Dynamo Settle 3-3 In Europa League Thriller
By Gideon Ayeni
Victor Osimhen continued his impressive Europa League form, finding the net as Galatasaray and Dynamo Kiev played out a dramatic 3-3 draw on Tuesday night.
The Turkish giants parading Victor Osimhen in the Europa League match started with former Tottenham defender Davinson Sanchez opening the scoring in the sixth minute.
The goal was courtesy of a precise assist from Dries Mertens. The early pressure paid off again in the 21st minute when Abdulkerim Bardakci powered in a second goal to put Galatasaray firmly in control.
Dynamo Kiev, however, displayed resilience. Vladyslav Vanat halved the deficit just before halftime, keeping the visitors in the contest.
Osimhen, proving his worth once more, restored Galatasaray’s two-goal cushion in the 53rd minute by confidently converting a penalty kick. His goal marked his fourth strike in five Europa League appearances this season.
But the Ukrainian side refused to back down. Andrii Yarmolenko turned the tide, scoring twice to stun the home fans and level the game at 3-3.
Despite the spirited display, Galatasaray remains fifth in the Europa League standings, with their hopes for progression hanging in the balance.
