In a one-sided pre-season match, Victor Osimhen displayed his goal-scoring prowess once again, netting two impressive goals to guide Napoli to a resounding 4-0 victory against Hatayspor.
The 24-year-old Nigerian international, fresh from a well-deserved break in his home country, wasted no time in making his mark on the field against the Turkish club.
Osimhen, the reigning 2022/23 Serie A top scorer, picked up where he left off last season, proving to be the driving force behind Napoli’s dominant performance.
Within the first 30 minutes of his first preseason game, the prolific striker found the back of the net twice, leaving fans in jubilation as usual.
After a tense opening few minutes, Napoli broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute when Osimhen pounced on an opportunity to give the Serie A champions the lead.
The Nigerian’s lightning-quick reflexes and clinical finishing were on full display as he capitalized on the chance with precision.
Just four minutes later, Osimhen once again demonstrated his lethal combination play, teaming up brilliantly with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to score Napoli’s second goal.
The seamless collaboration between the two forwards highlighted the attacking prowess of the Italian giants.
The Super Eagles star’s heroics weren’t the only story of the day, as Argentine forward Giovanni Simeone also secured a brace with goals in the 64th and 70th minutes, sealing the comprehensive victory for Napoli.
With an impressive record of 26 goals and 4 assists in 32 matches last season, Osimhen is undoubtedly set to play a pivotal role in Napoli’s quest to retain the Serie A title.
His return from the well-deserved break in Nigeria has rejuvenated the team, boosting their confidence as they gear up for the challenging season ahead.
Napoli’s fans have every reason to be excited about the Nigerian striker’s return to the pitch, as his extraordinary goal-scoring abilities could be the key to their success once again this season.
