Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen finally scored for Galatasaray in their Turkish Super Lig match against Kasimpasa on Saturday.

Osimhen, who moved to the club on loan from Napoli, scored twice – his first goals since arriving at the club earlier this month.

But his two goals weren’t enough, as Galatasaray surrendered a 3-0 lead to draw 3-3 with Kasimpasa.

Osimhen, who had bagged three assists before Saturday’s game, scored twice in eight minutes (20th, 28th minutes) to put Galatasaray 2-0 up.

Former Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi made it 3-0 when he scored in the 34th minute.

With a minute left to play in the first half Kasimpasa pulled a goal back through Mamadou Fall.
