Abuja, Nigeria – (African Boulevard News) – Victor Osimhen, the Nigerian striker, has made yet another mark in Serie A, Juventus, on Thursday. The Napoli star’s latest goal against Udinese has brought him into the league’s history books, matching a record set by the legendary George Weah in 2000.
Osimhen’s goal in the 1-1 draw with Udinese means he has now scored in five consecutive matches, a feat last achieved in Serie A by Weah himself. The Nigerian striker has managed to match the record that was set over two decades ago by the former Ballon d’Or winner while playing for AC Milan.
Osimhen’s goal-scoring form this season has been impressive, and he has consistently proven to be one of the most lethal marksmen in Serie A. His goal against Udinese saw him eclipse the mark set by Cameroon’s Samuel Eto’o, who scored in four straight league games during his time at Inter Milan.
The record-matching goal has brought renewed attention to Osimhen’s abilities and has sparked excitement amongst Napoli fans. The striker has quickly become a fan favorite since joining the club from Lille in the summer of 2020. He has now scored 10 goals in 23 appearances for the Italian side and looks set to continue his impressive form.
Football analysts and experts have hailed Osimhen’s latest achievement, with many suggesting that the 22-year-old has the potential to become one of the best strikers in the world. Former Super Eagles captain, Vincent Enyeama, expressed confidence in Osimhen’s abilities and believes he can reach even greater heights in his career.
“Victor Osimhen is an outstanding striker. He is a hard worker and has great talent. His goal-scoring prowess is exceptional, and I believe he has what it takes to become one of the best strikers in the world,” Enyeama said.
Overall, Osimhen’s latest achievement is a testament to his dedication and talent. The Nigerian striker has proven that he is a force to be reckoned with in Serie A, and his record-matching goal is sure to go down in history. Napoli fans and football enthusiasts alike will be eagerly anticipating his next appearance on the pitch, hoping to witness more of his magic in action.
