Napoli captain, Giovanni Di Lorenzo praised Victor Osimhen for helping Napoli salvaged a draw against Barcelona in their UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night.

Osimhen, who was making his first appearance for the Partenopei since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations scored 15 minutes from time to cancel out Robert Lewandowski’s opener for Barcelona.

Lewandowski broke the deadlock on the hour mark, drilling low into the near bottom corner after he was set up by Amir Rrahmani.

However, Osimhen equalised with his last kick of the game, just before he was hauled off for Giovanni Simeone.
