Red-hot Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, scored his fifth goal since joining French Ligue 1 side, Lille, in the summer.
Osimhen, who was an instant hit for Lille, struck in the 39th minute in their 2-1 win over Angers on Friday.
Goals from Osimhen and Luiz Araujo ensured Lille 100 per cent home record in Ligue 1 this season.
Osimhen has been in superb form for Lille following his switch from Belgian outfit, Sporting Charleroi this summer.
The 20-year-old, who was on target in Nigeria’s 2-2 international friendly draw against Ukraine on Tuesday, will also be keen to move ahead of Dutch forward Memphis Depay of Olympic Lyon in the top scorers chart.
Lille occupy 4th position in the table on nine points from five games, behind Lyon, PSG and Rennes.
