Fenerbahçe head coach Domenico Tedesco commended his defenders for successfully containing Victor Osimhen during Monday night’s Turkish Super Lig match.
The Yellow Canaries managed to secure a 1-1 draw against their city rivals in a fiercely contested intercontinental derby at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium.
Osimhen, who scored two goals in their prior encounter, was effectively neutralized by the Fenerbahçe defense, spearheaded by captain Milan Skriniar.
The Nigerian international played for 89 minutes in the match.
Tedesco acknowledged his players for rising to the occasion.
“I don’t believe Galatasaray controlled the game either. In matches of this nature, winning second balls is crucial. They played long balls to Osimhen and Baris, and we defended most of them effectively,” the coach was quoted as saying by Fanatik.
