Galatasaray Hails Victor Osimhen’s Stunning Bicycle Kick as a ‘Work of Art’

Galatasaray Hails Victor Osimhen’s Stunning Bicycle Kick as a ‘Work of Art’. Galatasaray were left in awe after Victor Osimhen’s spectacular bicycle kick goal in their 3-0 victory over Antalyaspor on Saturday. In a statement posted on Instagram, the Turkish champions described the strike as more than just a photograph—it was a work of art.

The Nigerian forward sealed the win with the breathtaking goal in added time during the Süper Lig Game week 9 match at Corendon Airlines Park, Antalya. It marked his third league goal for Galatasaray, having opened his account in their 3-3 draw against Kasimpasa before being sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Osimhen’s brilliance not only helped Galatasaray return to winning form but also boosted their title hopes, as rivals Besiktas dropped points over the weekend. The result came after the two-time defending champions had recently defeated Fenerbahce in the Intercontinental Derby but faced renewed pressure following back-to-back slip-ups.

Without Osimhen, the Turkish side squandered a 2-0 lead to draw against Riga in the Europa League but managed a 1-0 win over Alanyaspor in the Süper Lig before the international break.

The 25-year-old, on loan from Napoli since September, has been instrumental in Galatasaray’s campaign. While the club is working to secure him on a permanent basis, suitors like Chelsea are poised to challenge for the striker’s signature.
