Galatasaray face Liverpool test with PSG awaiting winner

Galatasaray take a 1–0 lead to Anfield on Wednesday against Liverpool in the Champions League Round of 16, knowing even a draw will secure progress and a quarter-final clash with PSG.

The Turkish side edged the first leg in Istanbul and now rely on Victor Osimhen, who assisted the winner and previously scored against Liverpool in the group stage. “We know what’s at stake,” a club source said. “One moment can decide everything at Anfield.”

Liverpool, backed by their home crowd, must win to advance. “We’ll go all in,” a team insider noted, highlighting the pressure on Arne Slot’s squad.

Awaiting the winner are PSG, who crushed Chelsea 8–2 on aggregate. “They are among the best in Europe right now,” an analyst said.

For Galatasaray, reaching the next round may require discipline—and another decisive Osimhen moment.
