Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, grabbed a brace as they defeated Frankfurt 3-0 in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday night.
Frankfurt started the match with purpose and positivity, trying to overturn a two-goal deficit.
But Napoli were only ever a string of delicate passes away from being in on goal themselves. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia twice warned the away side before Victor Osimhen broke through on the stroke of half-time with a towering header past Kevin Trapp.
At 3-0 on aggregate, the task began to look insurmountable for Frankfurt – and it wasn’t long before Napoli pulled away.
The home side added to their advantage when Osimhen turned home from close range following more dangerous play down the right-hand side. Piotr Zielinski then got the goal his performance deserved via the penalty spot.
The only negative for Luciano Spalletti’s side was Kvaratskhelia somehow not getting on the scoresheet, as Napoli qualified for their first ever Champions League quarter-final in some style.
