Atalanta winger Ademola Lookman clashed with his manager, Ivan Juric, during their 1-0 UEFA Champions League win over Marseille on Wednesday night.

The incident occurred in the 75th minute when Lookman, visibly frustrated, reacted angrily after being substituted while the game was goalless.

Juric confronted him on the touchline before CEO Luca Percassi and captain Marten de Roon intervened.

Lazar Samardzic later scored the decisive goal for the Serie A side.

After the match, Juric was seen speaking with Lookman again, though reports say it remains unclear whether the matter was resolved.

Victor Osimhen fired Galatasaray to a 3-0 victory over Ajax at the Johan Cruyff Arena on Wednesday, scoring a stunning hat-trick that included two penalties.

After a goalless first half, the Nigerian striker opened the scoring in the 59th minute with a powerful header from Leroy Sané’s cross.

He doubled the lead seven minutes later from the spot after Youri Baas handled in the box, before completing his hat-trick with another penalty in the 78th minute following a second handball by Gerald Alders.

Ajax showed flashes of intent through Oscar Gloukh and Mika Godts but failed to break Galatasaray’s solid defense.

Osimhen’s treble makes him only the second Nigerian ever to score a hat-trick in the UEFA Champions League, sealing a memorable night for the Turkish champions in Amsterdam.
