The hosts levelled in the 20th minute after Marcos Llorente diverted Roland Salai’s cut back into his own net.
Simeone heaped plaudits on Osimhen despite the forward’s failure to register a goal in the game.
“Osimhen is very strong; he has always been like that in the air physically. He is very fast and very important for his team, so he is a very good footballer,” Simeone was quoted by Esto Es Atleti.
The 27-year-old has scored 12 times in 17 appearances across all competitions for Galatasaray this season.
