Post-match reaction

Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen shared his thoughts after the tie against Juventus.

He admitted he expected a difficult atmosphere in Turin:

“I know this stadium and the fans. I knew they would make it very hard for us. But we also heard our supporters and didn’t want to disappoint them.”

Why he didn’t celebrate

Osimhen explained why he didn’t celebrate his extra-time goal:

“I respect Luciano Spalletti, who played an important role in my career. Also, we didn’t perform well against a 10-man team.”

Final outcome

Galatasaray advanced on aggregate after a 5-2 win in the first leg, despite losing 2-3 in the return match.

Osimhen noted that the team is happy but still has room for improvement.
