Following the match, social media erupted with praise for Osimhen, who showcased his exceptional talent on the European stage.
Many fans were quick to highlight how clubs like Real Madrid and Chelsea had overlooked him during previous transfer windows.
One enthusiastic supporter tweeted, “This is who Real Madrid and Chelsea overlooked. Victor Osimhen is worth every penny,” emphasising the striker's immense value.
Another fan expressed their admiration with a touch of humour, stating, “Victor Osimhen can raise the dead with his goals,” capturing the electrifying effect he has on matches.
His ability to change the game was evident as he scored both goals in a crucial first-half performance that left Spurs scrambling at Rams Park on Thursday night.
Fans also praised the quality of Osimhen's strikes, particularly his second goal.
“Victor Osimhen will score whenever he plays. See the quality of the 2nd goal against Tottenham tonight. That’s quality,” one fan noted, highlighting his technical prowess and composure under pressure.
Another supporter remarked, “Victor Osimhen went from the Prince of Naples to mount the throne at Galatasaray!!!!!” reflecting on his impressive journey from Napoli to Istanbul.
The sentiment among fans was clear: Osimhen is not just a player; he is a phenomenon.
One fan declared, “He remains the face of Nigerian football and the best No.9 in Africa and one of the very best in the world!!!!”
This comment shows his significance not only to Galatasaray but also to Nigerian football as a whole.
In contrast, fellow Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman, who has also been making waves in Europe, found himself somewhat overshadowed by Osimhen's heroics.
While Lookman has been performing well for Atalanta, including another goalscoring out in the Champions League for his club, fans couldn't help but focus on Osimhen's standout display against Spurs.
It’s evident that Osimhen has solidified his place as a key figure in Nigerian football. With this match under his belt, Nigerians are keen to see what more this dynamic striker can achieve as he continues to make his mark on the global stage.
