(Video) Victor Osimhen nets superb header to peg Leicester City back and earn Napoli a point late in the game | OneFootball

Leicester City were pegged back late on against Napoli through a brilliant Victor Osimhen header.

The Foxes were in pole position in their Europa League group opener, with Harvey Barnes’ second-half goal stretching their lead to two and asserting their dominance in the contest.

However, Napoli always posed an attacking threat, even while 2-0 down, with Victor Osimhen’s quality eventually making the difference for the Serie A outfit.

After Osimhen finished off a quality Napoli move to half the deficit, he then rose above Caglar Soyuncu to get his head to the cross and beat Kasper Schmeichel with a superb header.
