After Victor Osimhen’s match-winning goal secured Galatasaray a 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the Champions League, the triumph made major headlines across England.

The former England football legend and commentator Gary Lineker used his post-match remarks to extend an apology to the Nigerian striker: “I want to apologize to Victor Osimhen. I used to say he sometimes got lost on the pitch, but things are totally different now. I shouldn’t have made those kinds of comments, that’s on me.

“So, Victor, if you are listening, I’m sorry about that. You should not spread rumours about these things, so my bad on that.”

Lineker also praised the player’s abilities.

He said: “He’s fast, tall, a clinical finisher, and extremely effective in the air. He truly is a top-class player.”

Osimhen, who was named Man of the Match against Liverpool in midweek, scored the only goal as Galatasaray defeated the Premier League champions at the RAMS Park.

Lineker made the scathing comments on Osimhen after the Nigerian signed a four-year deal with Galatasaray in the summer transfer window.
