The bicycle kick goal scored by Galatasaray's Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen against Antalyaspor in the Süper Lig has gone down in history as one of only two bicycle kick goals in world football to exceed the 2.30-meter height threshold.
In the match where the Yellow-Reds defeated Antalyaspor 3-0 away from home, Osimhen's bicycle kick, executed at a height of 2.32 meters, became the second goal in history to clear the 2.30-meter bar, joining the bicycle kick scored by Portuguese star striker Cristiano Ronaldo at a height of 2.38 meters during the 2017-2018 UEFA Champions League quarter-final, where Real Madrid defeated Juventus 3-0 away.
Osimhen's bicycle kick, which is expected to be among the best goals of the year worldwide, stood out as the star footballer connected with the ball at a height of 2.32 meters.
While the 25-year-old Galatasaray striker reached a height of 2.32 meters during the bicycle kick, he also came very close to the goal scored by Cristiano Ronaldo at 2.38 meters, which remains the highest bicycle kick goal in history.
