Serie A: Osimhen Takes Tally To 16 As Napoli Defeat Spezia 3

Victor Osimhen scored a brace as Napoli continue to race past every team in Serie A to the title with a 3-0 win over Spezia on Sunday.

The Nigerian forward has been in excellent form this season and was once again instrumental in securing the victory for his team.

The match started slowly, but things picked up in the second half when winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia converted a penalty two minutes into the second half.

This put Napoli in the lead, and Osimhen had a chance to double their advantage in the 61st minute, but his effort was ruled out for a foul on a Spezia defender.

However, Osimhen did not let this setback get the best of him and seven minutes later, he scored with a close-range header following a mistake by a Spezia defender. This was a crucial goal that gave Napoli the lead they needed to secure the victory. Osimhen's ability to score under pressure and take advantage of defensive mistakes was a critical factor in the match.

The Nigerian forward was not done yet, as another error by the Spezia defense gave him the opportunity to make it 3-0 in the 73rd minute.

This was his 16th league goal of the season, a personal record for the striker, and further highlighted his great form this season. Osimhen's clinical finishing and ability to score crucial goals have been major factors in Napoli's success this season.

With this victory, Napoli provisionally increased their advantage over second-placed Inter Milan to 16 points. Spezia remained 17th, just five points above the relegation zone.
