Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen made his second debut for Galatasaray in their 3-0 victory over newly-promoted Fatih Katagumruk, Soccernet.ng reports.

Osimhen completed his transfer to Galatasaray three weeks ago, but he was not part of the team for their opening-day win over Gaziantep.

He had not played any game since June and was lacking match fitness. So coach Orkan Buruk named him on the bench.

However, against Karagumruk, Buruk named the 26-year-old Nigerian striker on the bench, as he opted for Baris Alper Yilmaz to lead the attack.

Alper Yilmaz scored twice against Gaziantep last week, and he continued from where he left off, scoring the opener for the Cimbom after just ten minutes.

Even after scoring, Galatasaray continued to dominated the game. But they lacked the cutting edge in the final third, as chances fell to Mario Lemina and Leroy Sane.

Galatasaray got an extra man advantage in the 23rd minute, as Marius Doh got sent off after a VAR review. But they could not capitalize, as the first half ended 1-0.

The Cimbom started the second half with some fire, creating multiple chances minutes into the restart. But they failed to convert.

As the game continued to drag on, coach Buruk introduced Osimhen into the game in the 61st minute.
