Lille Vs Chelsea: Can Osimhen Show Why Nigeria Should End Abraham's Pursuit?
Published: October 01, 2019
Chelsea will battle Lille at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Wednesday in one of the match day two fixtures in the Champions League.
The encounter is a game that many soccer-loving Nigerians will want to watch as it provides them with an opportunity to see three players of Nigeria decent in action.
All eyes will be on Tammy Abraham to see if he will end a three-match barren run, while Tomori will be monitored to see if he can maintain his no-nonsense defensive aproach against the Ligue 1 side.
However, large portion of Nigerians will keep close tabs on the performance of Lille forward Victor Osimhen against Chelsea defenders.
The 20-year-old currently tops the goalscoring chart in France with six goals, but many will hope to see if he can stand his ground when he comes up against the likes of Christensen, Zouma and Azpilicueta.
As much as the youngster has proven to be the best candidate to succeed Odion Ighalo as Super Eagles hitman, his performance in tomorrow's encounter will determine whether the Nigeria Football Federation should continue their chase after Abraham's services to the very end.
Apart from scoring against the Blues, Osimhen's overall display will be perfectly analyzed by many Super Eagles fans to see if chasing after Abraham should be a do-or-die affair.
