Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen set a new record in the Champions League after his side’s 1-0 win against Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League.
Osimhen was impressive as Galatasaray defeated Liverpool in the Champions League Round of 16 first leg tie in Turkey.https://urbanexpresslive.com/ucl-how-osimhern-sets-new-record-after-galatasarays-victory-against-liverpool/
His teammate Mario Lemina scored the only goal of the encounter in the first half to give the Turkish Super Lig champions a first-leg advantage ahead of the return leg next week.
However, according to OptaJoe, Osimhen has been involved in eight goals in the Champions League this season (7 goals and 1 assist), the most ever by a Nigerian player in a single Champions League campaign.
The former Napoli attacker is ahead of Atletico Madrid’s Ademola Lookman (6), Tijani Babangida (6), Yakubu Ayegbeni (6) and John Utaka (6).
