Victor Osimhen scored his eight goal of the season to earn Napoli a hardfought 1-0 over Torino which saw them record their eight consecutive win in the Serie A this season, Owosports.com.ng reports.
The Super Eagles striker powered in a delightful header from a deflected cross in the 80th minutes to give the visitors a deserved lead after being denied the opener in the 56th minutes by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) after Di Lorenzo headed past Torino’s goalkeeper.
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.
