Lille hotshot Victor Osimhen scored yet again in a 2-1 triumph at home to Angers, his sixth goal in six games for club and country, to return Le Dogues to winning ways and secure pleasing compliments from fans.
The Nigeria international’s goal saw him become the first player to score 5 goals or more in his first 5 Ligue 1 games since Mario Balotelli in September-October 2016.
It wasn’t his best goal yet with the 20-year-old in the right place at the right time to bundle home a loose ball after Angers’ goalie spilled a fierce Jonathan Bamba drive.

Please! Please! Please!
Osimhen is not Rashford's mate.
Osimhen is a proper striker, Rashford? Nobody knows what position that guy plays in.
You need to be sure what position Rashford plays in before you come up with the comparisons. https://t.co/WcbUkwHmGw

Victor Osimhen has scored 5 goals in 5 games for Lille. Currently the top scorer in Ligue 1 & that's without scoring a penalty. Keep in mind that this is his debut season. Will like to see how much @Arsenal pays for him after Pepe has fully transitioned to Gervinho.

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