Victor Osimhen can’t hide his enthusiasm after establishing two new records in Galatasaray’s 3-1 win against Bodo/Glimt.

Osimhen scored twice in the UEFA Champions League Matchday Three at the Rams Park on Wednesday night.

The Nigerian scored in the third minute and added another three minutes after the hour.

The striker made history by becoming the first Galatasaray player to score in seven straight European games.

Osimhen previously shared the record with Burak Yilmaz.

The 26-year-old also became the club’s fastest-ever goal scorer in the UEFA Champions League.

Osimhen thanked his teammates for contributing to his personal achievement.

“I don’t score these goals alone, I don’t break these records alone. A huge thank you to the team and our fans. We’ll continue to build on this momentum,” he was quoted by the club’s official website.
