The first choice striker of the senior national team of Nigeria Victor Osimhen sent a timely warning to Gabon, ahead of the world cup qualifiers playoff with a hattrick for Galatasaray in their 3-0 win over Ajax in the UEFA Champions League, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Gabon will be Nigeria’s first opponent in the mini tournament in Morocco on the 13th of November, and Osimhen sent a timely warning with an open play goal sandwiched between two penalty goals.
He showed his predatory instincts with his first goal in the 59th minute, before increasing his tally six minutes after the hour mark from the spot. His hattrick was completed in the 78th minute from the spot.
It was his sixth goal in the tournament in three games after his goal against Liverpool, a brace against Molde before his hattrick today against the Dutch giants at their home ground in Amsterdam.
