'This Kid Will Do Exploits In Europe' - Fans React As Osimhen Defies Health Scare To Score First Away Goal In Ligue 1

Four days ago, he was on the score sheet as they bested the principality club in a League Cup meeting.

And with 13 minutes gone in their league game today, the Super Eagles striker pounced on a through ball from teammate Jonathan Ikone to lift an exquisite finish over onrushing goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte.

His strike at the Stade Louis II was his first away from home this season, and his 13th in all competitions so far.

Though Lille failed to build on the goal and eventually fell to a 5-1 defeat to their opposition, fans have lauded the goal from the Nigerian with their reactions on Twitter.

Below are some of the tweets,

@unitedyusuf: I thought Osimhen was down last week, dude as just put LILLE in the lead away against Monaco.

@webEngr: Victor Osimhen scores again. Just three days after scoring against same opponent, Monaco. 13th league goal of the season. THIRTEEN!!! Boy could be worth 60 million by season end.

@_KingWale: Wait! Víctor Osimhen came straight from hospital 🏥 to score against Monaco, please liquidate that club.

@deniyiclement: Osimhen no dey use eye see Monaco... Boy is Brutal. #ASMLOSC #LigueUn

@DKINGJAY: It's 🇳🇬 Victor Osimhen agaaaiiin! • He has scored 🆚 Monaco again!! • He scored his 13th ⚽ of the season and it's just December. What a goal king!!!

@steveDedee: Monaco improved massively after Osimhen's goal. Best performance so far this season. Osimhen was the only player trying to make things happen for Lille. Very impressive how much he has put on himself at a very young age. Massive player he is already.

@theoddsolace: Victor Osimhen's first Ligue 1 away goal. Remember where you were!

@hameerswag: Congratulations. Many more goals to come.

@theUnitedway97: Victor Osimhen with a great finish after recieving the ball in behind the defence from a good trough ball by Jonathan Ikoné. Osimhen turning out to be a good signing so far for Lille.

@iamOkon: Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen grabbed his 10th league goal of the season away at Monaco tonight. He becomes the 5th Nigerian to hit double figures in a single Ligue 1 season after Victor Ikpeba, Osaze Odemwingie, John Utaka and Brown Ideye. Special talent! 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

@joyturn2_: Tammy Abraham yen yen yen. Victor Osimhen now has more goals than him this season. If I hear anyone compare him to Marcus Rashford again 😠

@Ahmadsalihu: Said this 13hrs ago... And Victor Osimhen came through with the goal. This Kid will do exploits in Europe. The EPL is waiting bro
