Galatasaray's Draw a Wake-up Call, Says Osimhen

Victor Osimhen, the Super Eagles forward, has called Galatasaray's disappointing 2-2 draw against newly promoted Corum a crucial wake-up call. The champions began their title defense at Rams Park but were held by a Corum side making its top-flight debut.

“

Such opponents are difficult. And so it happened. We need to wake up. We are experiencing disappointment. Let this be a wake-up. Knowing that all the next matches will be difficult, we will continue on our way by correcting ourselves

Despite Galatasaray being clear favorites, Corum responded brilliantly. Alexandros Kyziridis scored their first Super Lig goal, and Jesus Ramírez capitalized on a defensive error to put the visitors ahead 2-1. Even after Corum was reduced to 10 men, Galatasaray struggled to equalize until Osimhen headed home late in the game to complete his brace.

“

It will be a difficult season. The team is also aware. I am ready to give everything for this club. This was an important match as a wake-up. There was also a wake-up for the players.

Osimhen expressed disappointment with the team's performance, stating, "We need to wake up. We are experiencing disappointment. Let this be a wake-up." He stressed that all future matches will be difficult and urged his teammates to learn from their mistakes. "We have to give our all on the field. Our fans give incredible energy, always support us. We have to repay it," he added, emphasizing the need to gain momentum before the Champions League.
