Galatasaray can’t afford to slow down as they aim to win the Turkish Super Lig for a third time in a row, according to Victor Osimhen.
The Yellow and Reds rallied to beat Alanyaspor 2-1 at the GAIN Park Stadium on Sunday.
The win put Okan Buruk’s side seven points clear of Istanbul rivals Fenerbahce, who have a game in hand.
Osimhen scored the winning goal for Galatasaray against Alanyaspor.
The 26-year-old reckoned that it is important for the titleholders to keep pushing hard for the title.
“First of all, I would like to congratulate the team and thank our fans. I think we would not have had the energy to get these three points without them.
“We were not very good in the first half, but we were able to improve ourselves in the second half. We knew that every match until the end of the season would be very difficult and that it would be the final. We will try to maintain our momentum,” Osimhen told the club’s official website.
The Nigerian has racked up 22 goals and five assists in 29 appearances for Galatasaray this season.
