Nigerian super forward Victor Osimhen was on target again in Serie A for his club SSC Napoli.

Osimhen scored the second goal of the game as Napoli thrashed the newly promoted club, AC Monza, 4-0 at the Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples.

The 23-year-old started his second game of the season and crowned it with a goal, his second of the season in as many matches for the Blues.

Osimhen lasted 84 minutes before he was substituted for Adam Ounas. He is yet to play 90 minutes this season.

Kvaratskhelia steals the show at the Maradona

While Osimhen got on the score sheet once again, new signing Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was the star of the show at the Maradona Stadium.

Kvaratskhelia is now Napoli's top scorer after he scored a brace to inspire the Blues to another big win in Serie A.

The 21-year-old summer arrival scored the first and third goal as Napoli thrashed Monza 3-0.

Kvaratskhelia scored one and assisted another goal in his debut last weekend as Napoli demolished Hellas Verona 5-2 in their season opener.

He has now followed that with another brace and will surely push Nigeria's Osimhen in the battle for who emerges as Napoli's top scorer this season.
