Morata Says Victor Osimhen is One of the Best Strikers in the World
Galatasaray forward Alvaro Morata has hailed his teammate Victor Osimhen as one of the best strikers in world football.
Both players found the back of the net as Galatasaray cruised to a 5-1 victory over Eyupspor at the Recep Tayyip Erdogan Stadium on Sunday. Morata, who came off the bench, bagged a brace while Osimhen added a goal and an assist to his tally.
Osimhen, currently on loan from Napoli, has been a standout performer for Galatasaray this season, stepping up in the absence of injured captain Mauro Icardi. The Nigerian star has so far notched 31 goals and seven assists in 36 appearances across all competitions for Okan Buruk’s side.
Speaking after the win, Morata praised the 26-year-old, describing him as not just a brilliant footballer but also a great person. “Osimhen is a great person and one of the best centre-forwards in the world,” Morata said via the club’s website.
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
Nigerian Footballer, Bright Osayi-Samuel , react to match as Super Eagles lose to Morocco.
The player calls out CAF for their referee appointment. He shares how the Ghanaian Referee was tough on the field and made bad choices.
“One thing I would say is that the referee was really bad. I’m not saying that was the reason we lost. He is making really bad choices and it’s really tough to watch because we have referees like this in big games like today.
He then praises Morocco for a good game “But Morocco did really well.”
Super Eagles Coach, Eric Chelle speaks and shared why Nigeria lost the AFCON match to Morocco.
It can be noted that the match was held on the 14th of January, 2026. Nigeria lost the match with a draft in the penalties, 4-2.
During a recent interview, Chelle shared his observations about the match and shared why they lost.
“From a technical point of view, the Super Eagles weren’t at the same level as we displayed in our other matches.”
“I don’t want to say the reason was fatigue, but the truth is that we lacked movement and power.”
