On loan Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori has admitted that Napoli forward Victor Osimhen was a tough opponent when his loan team AC Milan lost 0-1 to the Naples based side.
Osimhen was introduced in the second half of the game with Napoli leading courtesy of a goal from Matteo Politano which ended as the lone goal of the game.
According to Tomori, the Nigerian helped Napoli execute their aim of wanting to play counter attack football as they bid to preserve their lead and pick all three points.
He admitted that the pace of Osimhen meant even though Napoli were defending deep late into the game he couldn’t join the attack so as not to leave space for the Nigerian to wreck havoc.
“ They player on the counter with Osimhen on and we have to deal with him which isn’t easy because of his pace. It was impossible to move forward knowing he is on the pitch and can make use of space if given any”,Tomori said after the game.
