Former Turkish referee Ahmet Çakar has disputed Victor Osimhen's selection as the Man of the Match following Galatasaray's 4-2 win against Lille. Çakar contended that three other players, Barış Alper Yılmaz, Batrakov, and Yunus Akgün, had made more significant contributions to the match. The Nigerian forward scored the fourth goal in Galatasaray's victory at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

During an appearance on the BTV YouTube channel, Çakar expressed his concerns over the selection, emphasizing the contributions of the three other players. He stated, "It's unfair that Osimhen was chosen as man of the match.
Osimhen didn't play badly, but there are Barış Alper Yılmaz, Batrakov and Yunus Akgün." Despite the controversy, Osimhen has continued to perform well throughout the season, scoring seven goals and providing three assists in eight matches.
