Victor Osimhen hits 50th goal for Napoli with brace vs Frankfurt

Napoli thrashed Frankfurt 3-0 at home to advance to their first Champions League quarterfinal with a brace from Osimhen and a goal from Zielinski.

Osimhen scored just before halftime by heading in Politano’s cross, and he added a second in the 53rd by sweeping in Di Lorenzo’s low cross.

Frankfurt did not pose a danger for the majority of the game, and when Zielinski was hauled down in the box by Sow later in the half, the situation only got worse.

The midfielder took advantage of the opportunity to score Napoli’s third goal and give the Italian team a magnificent 5-0 overwhelming victory.
