Victor Osimhen scored just after the hour in the 4-2 win at Lille, his first Champions League goal of the season (see our Matchday 3 Wednesday results). Afrik-Foot reports he was substituted in the 61st minute of the 4-0 win over Konyaspor on 30 October with physical discomfort and was seen limping afterwards, while Sports Mole expects him to lead the attack.
