Osimhen On Target Again, Chukwueze Subbed On As Villarreal Beat Napoli In Friendly Game

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, scored for Napoli who lost 3-2 to Villarreal in a friendly game inside the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Saturday, Completesports.com reports.

Also in action was Osimhen’s Super Eagles teammate Samuel Chukwueze, who came on in the 73rd minute.

Last Sunday, Osimhen found the back of the net in Napoli’s 3-1 win against Crystal Palace.

Osimhen netted in the 14th minute to cancel out Etienne Capoue’s opener for Villarreal on 12 minutes.

Other scorers for Villarreal were Nicolas Jackson (67th) and Gerard Moreno (70th).

And with 11 minutes left to play Khvicha Kvaratskhelia got Napoli’s second goal from the penalty spot.

Osimhen top the scorers chart on nine goals after 11 topflight fixtures.

Napoli, on 41 points, lead the table and are eight points clear of AC Milan after 15 games.

They will face Ligue 1 club Lille in another friendly on Wednesday, 21 December.

And they will return to league actions with a tricky tie away to Inter Milan on 4th January, 2023.
