Galatasaray Coach Buruk Misses Osimhen in Kocaelispor Win

Galatasaray's head coach, Okan Buruk, expressed that his team missed Victor Osimhen during their narrow 1-0 victory against Kocaelispor. The decisive goal was scored by Abdulkerim Bardakci 19 minutes before the end of the match.

Osimhen has been sidelined for two consecutive games due to an injury he sustained during the 3-2 win against Istanbul Başakşehir on September 4. Buruk emphasized Osimhen's importance to the team, stating that his presence is a psychological strength and that playing alongside him offers a different experience.

He noted the pressure the team faced in the match without Osimhen and highlighted the need for a clinical striker. Galatasaray is set to face Trabzonspor in their next league game this weekend.
