Steve Nicol has said that Victor Osimhen, the Galatasaray striker, possesses the ability to decide any match with moments of brilliance.
Nicol made the remark ahead of Liverpool FC’s UEFA Champions League Round of 16 second-leg clash against Galatasaray, scheduled for Wednesday at Anfield.
It will be recalled that Liverpool suffered a 1-0 defeat in the first leg played in Turkey last week.
However, Nicol also cast doubt on whether Liverpool will beat Galatasaray and progress to the next stage.
“Liverpool are 1-0 behind Galatasaray, who has a guy upfront in (Victor) Osimhen, who can win any game on his own with a simple piece of magic and brilliance,” Nicol said on ESPN FC.
“How Liverpool can be such a big favourite to qualify for the Champions League quarter-final stage after what we saw at the weekend, I don’t get.”
