Osimhen Sizzling Sizzer Mizzem. Osimhen Sizzling Sizzer Mizzem. You are destined for greatness. Soon you will be the king of Italy. I n I will always believe in you.
Heaven bless Osimhen and all deserving Super Eagles players
I think he is great already. Dude is a beast.
I feel for the Spezia defenders. Them against Osimhen today was like asking Chihuahuas to mark a Cheetah. It wasn’t a fair contest at all.
I also want to praise Kvara for his great unselfishness in gifting Osimhen the 3rd goal. He could easily have gone for goal himself, and he would have been justified to do so. Besides, Napoli were 2 goals up. He did not have to give Osimhen that ball, BUT HE DID. If it was egbon Insigne, he would have gone for goal. No way Insigne is passing that ball to anybody. What senior man Insigne refused to do, Kvara is doing now in abundance. This is the kind of unselfish cooperation that results in trophies.
Insigne wherever he’s will be ashamed of himself watching Kvaratskhelia make assists and scores. Not is type that only score penalties won mostly by Osimhen. The young guy is far better than him
Osimhen will score a lot of goals if he is being fed with assist from other teammates.
Could have got a hattrick today if not for the yeye spectacular goal Anguissa was trying to get which was unsuccessful
Osimhen’s body language showed that he was furious with Anguissa for not passing the ball. And Anguissa is usually a very level headed player. I don’t know what came over him today.
Gbam!
Osimhen can’t stop scoring even if he tried! He’s just so blessed!
The first goal was unbelievable….. Rising with your head and still rising above a goalkeeper who is using his hands is just unthinkable considering nobody had a head start before the jump……The ball was in the air and everyone had the time think and attack the ball but still nobody including the goal keeper could rise as high as osimhen!……World class
A great player that may win 2nd world footballer of the year for Africa if he moves to teams like Madrid, Barca, Bayern. He is simply unplayable.
