Turkey: Galatasaray’s shocking loss to Genclerbirligi follows Osimhen’s comeback

In the Turkish Cup quarterfinal on Wednesday, Galatasaray lost 2-0 against Genclerbirligi due to a lack of motivation from their injured striker, Victor Osimhen.

After suffering an arm injury against Liverpool in the Champions League, Osimhen has been sidelined for more than a month.

However, the Super Eagles star started the match on the bench against Genclerbirligi.

After winning the Super Lig the previous weekend, Galatasaray were overwhelming favorites coming into the match.

Despite controlling the game, the Yellow and Reds were unable to score.

Firatcan Uzum gave the visitors the lead in the 51st minute.

In the 78th minute, Okan Buruk substituted Osimhen as Gala battled to regain control of the match.

However, Adama Traore gave Genclerbirligi their second goal five minutes after Osimhen was introduced.
