Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen was in action as Napoli crashed out of the Coppa Italia after losing 4-0 to Frosinone on Tuesday.

The Nigerian international came on as a substitute for Giovanni Simeone in the 63rd minute.

Frosinone took the lead moments later when Enzo Barrenechea was allowed a free header from six yards that looped up into the far top corner.

Incredibly, while Napoli had their goal disallowed earlier, Frosinone doubled their advantage with an almost identical situation.

This time it was Giovanni Di Lorenzo whose back-pass was into a blind alley, intercepted by Caso and scored one-on-one with Pierluigi Gollini.

It got even worse when Di Lorenzo caught Francesco Gelli on the toe for a penalty that Cheddira – on loan from Napoli – converted.

Deep into stoppages, a through ball sent Abdou Harroui running down the centre and he beat Gollini one-on-one. The final whistle was barely audible under the deafening jeers from the crowd.
