The Galatasaray-Fenerbahce derby, played in Week 9 of the Super Lig, drew a wide echo in the foreign press. The standout name in the match was Victor Osimhen. The English site Goal wrote that the Nigerian striker's two goals brought the yellow-red side victory. Italian Tutto Mercato described Osimhen as the king of Istanbul.

Spanish Marca put Osimhen's performance in the spotlight and pointed out that Galatasaray failed to take advantage of chances that could have increased the lead. The report emphasized that the home side could have been more effective in attack throughout the match.

The incidents after the match also received wide coverage in the foreign press. German Sport put the tension that flared up after the final whistle on its front page. Italian La Gazzetta dello Sport described the events with a "Wild West" comparison, while Spanish AS wrote that the fierce brawl on the pitch had brought the long-standing rivalry between the two teams back into focus.

Russian Championat also assessed the match's key moments. Mario Lemina's last-minute intervention in front of the goal line was considered decisive for Galatasaray. Brazilian press focused less on the tense flow of the match and more on the general scuffle that broke out after the final whistle. It was reported that security forces had to intervene in the incidents.
