Lille Hitman Victor Osimhen Scores Goal No 5; Breaks French Ligue 1 Record

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen continues his goalscoring form for traditional French Ligue 1 side, Lille OSC on Friday.

The 20-year-old striker was at his ever reliable best for Lille Olympique Sporting Club in their 2-1 victory over Angers SCO inside the 50,186 capacity Stade Pierre-Mauroy which is situated at Villeneuve-d'Ascq , Hauts-de-France - European Metropolis of Lille.

Osimhen, who was on target in the Nigeria's 2-2 draw with Ukraine in Dnipro on Tuesday put the 'Les Dogues' in front in the 39th minute as further goal from Brazilian striker Luiz Araújo in 53th minute proves that Stéphane Bahoken late consolation three minutes from full time won't hamper the total three points for the hosts.

Victor Osimhen goal against Angers means he becomes the first player to score at least five goals in his first five French top-flight outings.
