Mario Lemina spoke out after Galatasaray's 3-1 victory over Bodø/Glimt in the Champions League. The Gabonese midfielder heaped praise on his teammate Victor Osimhen, who bagged a brace in the match.
He first emphasized the need for his team to always play at 100%:
In the Champions League, anything can happen. You saw yesterday's results. You always have to be ready and give 100% on the pitch.
Mario Lemina also lauded Victor Osimhen's performance, with the striker scoring twice in this encounter and becoming the first Galatasaray player to score in seven consecutive European matches:
He's an incredible striker, the best I’ve played with so far. He gives so much to the team, presses relentlessly, and helps us midfielders a lot.
Additionally, the 32-year-old Gabonese player provided reassuring news about his physical condition:
I feel good. It's an important season for the club and for my national team. I want to give my very best.
