Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has won the 2024-25 Turkish Süper Lig Goal of the Season for his spectacular bicycle kick against Antalyaspor.

The acrobatic finish, which came deep into stoppage time, was a moment of magic after Mauro Icardi had given Galatasaray a two-goal lead. With the home side failing to clear a late set piece, Osimhen seized the opportunity—allowing the ball to bounce before launching into a stunning overhead kick that found the back of the net.

The strike marked Osimhen’s third league goal for Galatasaray, having opened his account with a brace against Kasımpaşa.

The Nigerian striker quickly adapted to life in the Turkish top flight, making an instant impact with goals and match-winning performances.
