Nigeria’s Victor Osimhen delivered a breathtaking 52-minute hat-trick for Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig, solidifying his position as the league’s leading goalscorer.

The Nigerian forward put on a masterclass of clinical finishing, powering the Turkish giants to a dominant 4-0 victory over Antalyaspor.

His remarkable performance showcased his lethal touch in front of goal and cemented his status as an unstoppable force in Turkish football.

Osimhen opened the scoring by latching onto Alvaro Morata’s precise far-post cross, smashing the ball into the net to give Galatasaray an early advantage.

His second came from an excellent delivery by Barış Alper Yılmaz down the right flank, which he finished with pinpoint accuracy to extend the lead to 3-0.

The 26-year-old sealed his hat-trick in spectacular fashion, racing onto Yunus Akgün’s perfectly weighted through ball before driving a low shot past the goalkeeper, making it 4-0.

With this outstanding display, Osimhen surged to the top of the Super Lig scoring charts, overtaking former leader Krzysztof Piatek.

He has now netted 20 goals in the league this season, reinforcing his reputation as Galatasaray’s talisman and a dominant force in Turkish football.

Former Manchester United striker, Dimitar Berbatov, has named the team that could “surprise” Arsenal in the Premier League title race.

The Gunners are now six points clear of second-placed Chelsea, thanks to their 4-1 demolition of Tottenham on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta’s men could extend that lead to nine points, when they travel to face the Blues this weekend.

Berbatov has now said he expects Arsenal to be “really tested” over the hectic festive period and says their title credentials will become clearer in the New Year.

“Of course Liverpool are low in the table and Man City are dropping points, but there are other teams like Chelsea who can surprise people,” Berbatov told ESPN.

“Six points is a good cushion but in the Premier League it’s nothing and can go very quickly.”
