Turkish sports commentator Uğur Karakullukçu has harshly criticized Victor Osimhen following Galatasaray's 4-1 defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League. The critical moment occurred in the 75th minute when Osimhen, with a 2-on-0 advantage, opted to attempt a risky dribble against Barcelona's goalkeeper. Karakullukçu contended that a simple pass to fellow teammate Leroy Sane could have significantly altered the outcome.
"In the 75th minute, we had a 2-on-0 chance with Osimhen. Osimhen tried to beat the goalkeeper," Karakullukçu lamented, noting in a quote from NOW Spor, "If he had just passed it to Sane, at least we could have watched the final part of the match differently. The replay of the position wasn't shown at all, either." Despite Osimhen's miss, Barcelona went on to secure a 4-1 victory, with goals scored by João Cancelo, Fermín López, Anthony Gordon, and Karim Adeyemi.
