Osimhen Clinches Second Turkish Title with Brace as Awaziem Faces Relegation Heartbreak
Victor Osimhen crowned Galatasaray champions again with a decisive two-goal display in a 4-2 win over Antalyaspor. His brace sealed back-to-back Turkish Super Lig titles and added to the club’s storied history. In contrast, defender Chidozie Awaziem endured a painful evening as FC Nantes suffered a 1-0 loss at Lens, confirming their drop to Ligue 2 after 13 seasons in France’s top flight. Other Nigerian stars also made headlines across Europe. Femi Azeez threatened in Millwall’s playoff draw, while Semi Ajayi watched from the bench. In England’s top tier, both Calvin Bassey and Samuel Chukwueze featured for Fulham in a 1-0 defeat to Bournemouth. La Liga saw late-match heroics from Akor Adams for Sevilla and Sadiq Umar for Valencia, while Ademola Lookman created four chances in a narrow Atletico loss. Elsewhere, standout performances included a solo goal by David Okereke in Italy and an assist from AIK’s Zadok Yohanna in Sweden, rounding off a weekend of peaks and valleys for Nigeria’s European contingent.
