The Africans were on target as the Blues and the Winged Lions secured victories in Saturday’s Italian elite division matches
David Okereke opened his Serie A account in Venezia’s 2-1 away victory over Empoli on Saturday evening.
The former Nigeria U23 star – who joined the Winged Lions on loan from Club Brugge – made his bow in the 3-0 loss to Udinese.
Against Gli Azzurri inside Stadio Carlo Castellani, Okereke found the sumptuous moment to inspire the newly-promoted side to their first win of the 2021-22 campaign.
