Victor Osimhen gave Galatasaray an early lead as the Turkish club beat Konyaspor 4–0 away on Friday, 30 October. The Nigerian forward headed in Gabriel Sara's free kick in the 12th minute, starting a four-goal performance confirmed by match reports and the broadcaster's event record.
Yunus Akgün made the score 2–0 in the 28th minute. Aleksey Batrakov added the third in the 49th, before Rafael Leão converted a penalty in the 55th. Four different players supplied the goals, with Galatasaray keeping Konyaspor scoreless.
The match was played in Konya, with Galatasaray the visiting side. Konyaspor's own news listing records the 0–4 defeat. This is worth distinguishing from wording in one Nigerian report that incorrectly describes Galatasaray as the hosts.
Anadolu Agency and Premium Times both put Osimhen's season tally at nine goals in eight league appearances after the match. Premium Times reported that he was replaced in the 61st minute, after taking five shots, three of them on target.
Konyaspor also threatened before the break. Anadolu's account describes Jackson Muleka heading against the crossbar in the 39th minute. That chance did not change the score, and the visitors extended their advantage shortly after the second half began.
For Nigerian supporters, the result adds another scoring contribution to Osimhen's club season. The sources reviewed disagree on Galatasaray's resulting league-points total, so that figure is omitted. No conclusion about an injury or his availability for the next match is drawn from the substitution alone.
