Rigas FS manager, Viktors Morozs admitted his side would have struggled against Victor Osimhen in Thursday night’s UEFA Europa League clash, DAILY POST reports.
The Latvian side rallied from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 in the encounter.
Osimhen missed the game due to a muscle injury.
Morozs claimed the result would have been different had Osimhen played against his team.
“It would have been different if Osimhen had played. He would have added strength to Galatasaray. Osimhen is a different player than Icardi. In my opinion, he could have passed our defense more easily,” he was quoted by Haber Global.
“It would have been difficult to play against such a forward. His not playing today was a deficiency for Galatasaray. Osimhen is a strong and dangerous player. It would have been difficult for us if he had played today.”
