Osimhen scores match-winning goal as Napoli extend fine away run in Serie A

Victor Osimhen scored the only goal which gave Napoli a 1-0 victory over Bologna in Sunday's Serie A encounter.

Osimhen connected with Hirving Lozano's cross to separate the two teams with his 23rd-minute header.

It was his second goal in the Italian top-flight since he completed a big-money move from Ligue 1 club Lille in the summer.

Shortly after the restart for the second half, Senegal centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly pounced on a rebound after Osimhen attempted an overhead kick, but his strike was ruled out by the VAR because the ball struck the Nigerian striker's hand.
