Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Cagliari at the Diego Maradona Stadium was led by Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen, who also provided an assist. This is according to Soccernet.ng.
Osimhen scored during Napoli’s 2-0 victory over Braga in the UEFA Champions League midweek. And when the Partenopeans welcomed Cagliari to Diego Armanado Maradona Stadium, he was back in the starting lineup.
Osimhen was well-positioned to build on his impressive record versus the Islanders. Despite dominating the first half, Napoli was unable to generate many clear-cut opportunities. Osimhen was quite busy, but after a failed bicycle kick, he could only muster a shot on goal and a yellow card.
Much improved in the second half, Osimhen ultimately put Napoli ahead.
