Henry Onyekuru is “blessed to have a strong team of lions” after scoring the winner to fire Galatasaray past Istanbul Basaksehir and emerge as Turkish Super Lig champions.
The title holders had a mountain to climb heading into the clash with the visitors who were also in contention for the league diadem.
Having gone a goal down through Rijad Bajic’s effort in the 17th minute, the Lions needed a flash of brilliance from somewhere and found it in the form of their Nigerian import.
Sofiane Feghouli levelled matters before Onyekuru delivered the winning strike when it was needed most.
