World Cup 2026: ‘Total disaster’ – Oliseh on Italy’s failure to qualify

Victor Osimhen, the Galatasaray striker, has reacted to Turkey’s qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The Nigerian forward shared his excitement on social media after the big achievement.

Turkey secured their place in the tournament after a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Kosovo in Pristina. The match was decided by a second-half goal from Kerem Akturkoglu.

The win means Turkey will return to the World Cup for the first time since 2002. It marks a major moment for the country and its football fans.

After the match, Osimhen took to Instagram to celebrate the success of his club teammate. He reposted a photo of Abdulkerim Bardakci proudly waving the Turkish flag.

The Super Eagles star added simple emojis — clapping hands and a heart — to show his support and happiness. His reaction quickly caught the attention of fans online.

Turkey will now compete in Group D of the tournament alongside Paraguay, Australia, and the United States. Expectations are high as the team prepares for its long-awaited return to the global stage.
