Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen was the hero for Seria A side Napoli as his first-half header on a Hirving Lozano cross proved enough for Napoli to claim victory over Bologna.
Lozano was in fine form and he created the goal with a floated cross to the back post for totally unmarked Osimhen’s cushioned header.

The goal was Osimhen’s second in the Italian top-flight since he completed a big-money move from Ligue 1 club Lille last summer. The former Wolfsburg forward was in action for 83 minutes before he was replaced by Andrea Petagna
His African compatriot, Kalidou Koulibaly was solid at the back as he played the entire 90mins of the match while Algeria’s Faouzi Ghoulam did not make the matchday squad.
