Galatasaray Secures 1-0 Derby Victory Over Beşiktaş as Osimhen Receives Praise
Galatasaray maintained their position at the top of the Turkish Süper Lig with a 1-0 victory over local rivals Beşiktaş. The decisive goal was a header scored by Victor Osimhen following a cross from Leroy Sané. The match ended Beşiktaş's 18-game unbeaten run at home.
Following the match, Osimhen received significant praise from various figures in Turkish football. Former Beşiktaş director of football Önder Özen publicly lauded Osimhen, calling him the greatest striker in Turkey and the surrounding regions. The victory also served as a morale boost for Galatasaray ahead of their highly anticipated UEFA Champions League Round of 16 clash against Liverpool.
However, the derby was not without controversy. Beşiktaş President Serdal Adalı and the club's vice-president heavily criticized referee Ozan Ergün, particularly questioning the decision not to issue a red card to Osimhen during the match. In the aftermath of the intense derby fallout, Galatasaray midfielder Gabriel Sara deactivated his Instagram account due to fan reactions.
