Osimhen backs Galatasaray to overturn Europa League 4-1 defeat to qualify


Galatasaray will overturn a 4-1 loss at Dutch club AZ Alkmaar to qualify for the Europa League Round of 16, according to Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen.
Osimhen vowed to help Galatasaray win the Europa League, but he was suspended Thursday in Holland when the Turkish champions fell 4-1 in the first leg of the playoffs.
He has boasted that with the support of the fans in Istanbul, Galatasaray will turn the table around and qualify for the Round of 16.
“The return match in Istanbul will be very different. With the support of our fans, we will show them the true power of Galatasaray,” Osimhen said.
“I will score my goals. Leave AZ Alkmaar to me. We will be the side that advances. I am sure of that. Everyone should keep their morale high.
“First we will beat Rize (in the Super Lig) and then we will eliminate AZ Alkmaar.”
