The Digest:
Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen returned to action for Galatasaray after over a month on the sidelines, but his comeback was ruined as the Turkish giants suffered a shocking 2-0 loss to Genclerbirligi in the Turkish Cup quarter-final. Osimhen was introduced in the 78th minute, but the visitors had already taken the lead and added a second five minutes after his arrival. The defeat knocks Galatasaray out of the competition they won last season.
Key Points;
