Galatasaray secured their 25th Turkish league title with a 3-0 victory over Kayserispor, thanks in part to Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen’s goal-scoring prowess. Osimhen netted the first goal in the 26th minute, followed by Baris Alper Yilmaz’s strike three minutes later. Goalkeeper Fernando Muslera sealed the win with a penalty in the second half.
