Newsonline Nigeria report that Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen displayed his prowess on the field as he found the back of the net, propelling Napoli to a resounding 2-0 victory against Apollon Limassol in a highly anticipated pre-season friendly at the Stadio Patini on Friday night.

This remarkable performance not only reassures fans but also sets the stage for an exciting and successful season ahead for both Osimhen and Napoli.

This goal marked Osimhen’s third consecutive goal in as many pre-season matches, solidifying his position as a key attacking force for the Serie A champions. Not to be outdone, Giovanni Simeone joined the party, adding Napoli’s second goal in the 71st minute. Looking ahead, Napoli is set to kick off their Serie A campaign with an away fixture against Frosinone on August 17, a match eagerly anticipated by fans and players alike as they aim to defend their title.
