Victor Osimhen on Saturday scored twice for Napoli in the 52nd minute to make his tenth goal of the season in the Serie A against Udinese at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Udinese took a shock lead after 22 minutes, as Gerard Deulofeu found the bottom left corner of the net with a fantastic effort from the edge of the area, after a neat through pass by Roberto Pereyra.
Osimhen’s goal was enough to create a new Serie A record for a Nigerian as he has now reached double figures in two seasons.
