Super Eagles hopeful, Tammy Abraham had the last laugh as Chelsea defeated Victor Osimhen and LOSC Lille 1-2 in the UEFA Champions League, UCL, on Wednesday.

The UCL matchday two saw the two Nigerians go head-to-head in France, but at the end, despite both players finding the back of the net, it was Abraham who went home the happier of the two after Chelsea took all three points.

On the occasion of his 22nd birthday, it took just 22 minutes for Abraham to grab his first-ever UCL goal following his opener to put Chelsea 0-1 up in the night, with the other Nigerian on the pitch, Fikayo Tomori, providing the cross for Abraham.

But his goal only lasted 11 minutes, not to be outshone on the night, Osimhen equalised for the home side as he outjumped everyone to head home the leveller on 33 minutes.
