Victor Osimhen is proving unstoppable in the Italian Serie A as his towering header on Sunday sealed a hard-fought 1-0 win for Napoli over Torino.
Napoli are now the only team in Europe’s top five leagues with a 100 per cent record and reclaim first position from AC Milan as they have 24 points.
Also in action in the encounter was Osimhen’s Super Eagles teammate Ola Aina who played for 90 minutes.
It was Osimhen’s fifth goal in seven appearances so far in the Italian elite division this season.
Osimhen now has eight goals in nine games in all competitions for Napoli.
With nine minutes left in the game, Osimhen emerged the hero for Luciano Spalletti’s dominant side with his towering header.
Before Osimhen’s match winning effort in the 81st minute, Insigne had lost a penalty for Napoli while another goal scored in the 56th was also chalked off by VAR after a long check.
The earlier disappoinment counted for less as Osimhen ensured Napoli got all the three points that mattered the most.
