Osimhen then powered Napoli back into the game seven minutes after the break.

The visitors stood firm for the remaining part of the game to win their third-ever Serie A title.

“I am overwhelmed right now. It’s an amazing feeling. We’ve waited so many years for this moment and to be able to deliver the Scudetto to the Neapolitans is something we will not forget and it will continue to live in our hearts for the rest of our lives,” Osimhen told DAZN.

The 24-year-old has now scored 22 goals in the Italian top-flight this season.
