Napoli’s point man, Victor Osimhen has equaled George Weah’s record for the highest African goalscorer in Serie A after notching his 46th goal for Napoli.
Osimhen scored against Udinese on Thursday night to help Napoli secure a 1-1 draw and also equal the Liberian record in the Serie A.
Apart from equaling Weah’s record, Osimhen’s goal also helped Napoli win their first scudetto title first time in 33 years.
Napoli came into the game needing only a draw to be crowned Italian champions but found themselves behind in the 13th minute after Sandi Lovric put the hosts in front.
Osimhen netted a title-sealing equalizer for Napoli in the 52nd minute, causing the Napolitan fans to bounce in the Friuli.
The goal which is his 22nd in the league this season, also saw him equal Samuel Eto’o’s record for the Most Goals Scored by an African Player in a Single Serie A Season.
