Newly crowned African player of the year Victor Osimhen lived up to the expectations on Tuesday in Napoli’s 2-0 win over Sporting Braga.
The Nigerian International emerged as the player of the year on Monday beating Mohammed Salah and Achraf Hakimi to the award.
The Partnopei dictated the pace of the game and their efforts were well rewarded in the 9th minute with Braga’s defender Sedar scoring an own.
Osimhen was on hand to put the game beyond the Portuguese side in the 33rd minute and the host was in firm control of the game.
All the efforts of Braga to get something in the second half proved abortive as Napoli ran away with a 2-0 win.
The result means Napoli qualified for the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League.
