Another week, another Nigeria Super Eagles player have a filled day with Italian giants, Juventus in the league.

After a master class performance which saw Victor Osimhen of Napoli score twice and an assist in Napoli's win over Juventus last week, Ademola Lookman put two pass and gave an assist in Atalanta's 3-3 against Juventus on Sunday.

Lookman opened score less than five minutes to the game after his shot around the box 18 proved too much for the goalkeeper to handle.

Angel Di Maria restored parity for the Old Ladies of Turin from the penalty spot in the 25th minute.

The home side did score 10 minutes later through Milik who gave the home side the lead for the first time in the game ten minutes later.

However, at the start of the second half, Lookman's assist to Joakhim Maehle restored parity for Atalanta a minute to the second half.

In the 53rd minute, Lookman went ahead to give the Atalanta the lead with a beautiful header; his first goal with a header.

Hower,Danilo brought back his team to the game after scoring in the 65th minute to leave it 3-3 which eventually was the outcome at the end.

Lookman now has 11 goals and 3 assists in the league and has contributed to eight goals in game games
