Victor Osimhen has joined Senegal’s Moussa Sow and Ivory Coast's Gervinho in Lille's exclusive goalscoring club after scoring a goal on his 18th appearance.
The 20-year-old opened the scoring at the Stade Louis II in the 13th minute to take his tally to 10 goals in his debut Ligue 1 season.
Osimhen comes behind Sow and Gervinho as the only players to have scored more goals in their first 18 matches for the Great Danes in the French top-flight.
His opener was cancelled out before the break as goals from Gelson Martins and Keita Balde in the 23rd and 29th minutes respectively gave Monaco a 2-1 lead.
Osimhen will be hoping to help Lille stretch their four-game winning streak in Ligue 1 as they hope to close the gap between second-placed Marseille. (Goal)
