Victor Osimhen Sets New Galatasaray Record With Brilliant Brace Against Bodø/Glimt

Victor Osimhen’s sensational European form reached another milestone on Wednesday night as the Nigerian striker made Galatasaray history with a record-breaking display in their UEFA Champions League clash against Bodø/Glimt.

The prolific forward netted twice in the first half at Rams Park, becoming the first Galatasaray player ever to score in seven consecutive European matches — surpassing the previous record held by Burak Yilmaz, who had scored in six straight continental games back in 2012.

Osimhen opened the scoring just three minutes into the match before doubling his tally in the 33rd minute, putting the Turkish champions firmly in control. His goals not only powered Galatasaray toward a crucial Champions League win but also cemented his name in the club’s record books.

The 26-year-old’s incredible scoring run dates back to last season’s Europa League campaign, where he struck against Tottenham Hotspur, Dynamo Kyiv, Ajax, and AZ Alkmaar. This season, he has maintained that streak on Europe’s grandest stage, adding Liverpool and now Bodø/Glimt to his list of victims.

Since joining the Istanbul giants, Osimhen has become the focal point of Okan Buruk’s attack — combining strength, speed, and clinical finishing that have quickly made him a fan favorite. His latest accomplishment further establishes him as one of Europe’s most lethal strikers and a growing legend in Turkish football.

As of the time of this report, Galatasaray were leading Bodø/Glimt 3–1 with less than eight minutes remaining in regulation time.
