Nigerian star of Turkish football team "Galatasaray", Victor Osimhen, experienced emotional moments before the first match (1:0) against "Liverpool" in the 1/8 final stage of the Champions League. The "yellow-red" fans displayed a magnificent fan choreography in memory of the footballer's deceased mother.
İdman.Biz reports that a huge banner opened in the stadium featured a depiction of Osimhen himself, his daughter, and his mother. The choreography included the English words "We are family and family is everything".
The 27-year-old striker couldn't hold back his tears when he saw this scene during pre-match warm-up exercises. After the match, Osimhen and his daughter came out onto the field to thank the fans for this special attention. The fact that both of them were wearing Osimhen's symbolic mask did not go unnoticed.
It should be noted that Victor Osimhen made the assist for the only goal in the match, playing a major role in his team's 1-0 victory. The return match will be held on March 18 at "Anfield" stadium.
