Victor Osimhen’s sensational overhead kick in Galatasaray’s 3-0 victory over Antalyaspor has been officially recognised as the 2024/2025 Süper Lig Goal of the Season.
The Nigerian forward produced the moment of brilliance during an October 2024 league fixture at Rams Park. Coming off the bench late in the second half, Osimhen executed a perfectly timed bicycle kick that left the opposition goalkeeper rooted to the spot, drawing praise from fans, pundits, and teammates alike.
The goal, which capped an emphatic performance from Galatasaray, helped secure the win alongside a brace from Mauro Icardi. It was not only technically impressive but also showcased Osimhen's athleticism and attacking instinct, reinforcing his reputation as one of the league’s top performers.
Osimhen, who joined Galatasaray at the start of the 2024/25 season, played a pivotal role in the club’s domestic campaign—finishing as the league’s top scorer and contributing significantly to their title-winning run.
In a post-award statement, Osimhen expressed gratitude to the club and supporters, dedicating the award to his teammates and coaching staff. “It’s an honour to be recognised for such a goal, but this moment was made possible by the hard work of the entire team,” he said.
With his overhead kick now etched into Turkish football history, the 25-year-old’s form continues to spark conversation around possible international accolades, including a potential nomination for the FIFA Puskás Award.
