Napoli’s ex Osimhen stars in Europe: first-half brace v Bodo/Glimt | OneFootball

Galatasaray finished the first half in the lead against Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League group stage match, confirming themselves as a determined and aggressive team right from the opening minutes. What surprised spectators was the speed with which the home side found the advantage: as early as the 3rd minute, Osimhen took advantage of a lapse in the Norwegian defense, finishing coolly in front of the goalkeeper to make it 1-0. The goal immediately energized the crowd at the Nef Stadium and gave Galatasaray even more confidence, as they continued to push forward with intensity and precision in their passing.

Galatasaray, Osimhen leads the Turks in the Champions League: the scorecard

The second goal came in the 33rd minute, once again with Osimhen as the protagonist. A clumsy back pass from Bjorkan allowed the Nigerian striker to face the goalkeeper once more and score with ease, sealing his personal brace and consolidating the Turkish team's lead. Despite being behind, Bodo/Glimt tried to react. In the closing moments of the first half, the Norwegians had two clear chances to reduce the deficit. Hauge missed a moving penalty, mishitting the ball, while Fet hit the post with a powerful shot from outside the box. These episodes showed that, despite the home side's pressure, Bodo/Glimt still has offensive potential and can make the match tricky.
