The Nigerian striker, whose season was disrupted by a long shoulder injury, has chained goals since early March.

A dazzling counter concluded with composure (23rd) for the 2-0 then a control of the chest followed by a strong volley under the bar (44th) for the 3-0 allow the former Lille to reach the ten-goal mark for his first Italian season.
