Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman shared more photos of himself with the UEFA Europa League trophy as the team headed back to Italy following their finals victory in Dublin on Wednesday night.

The Super Eagles star scored a hat-trick to end Bayer Leverkusen's 51-game unbeaten run in all competitions.

It was also the first time an African had scored three goals in the final of a European competition.

The victory was also the first time the Italian side has won a major trophy in more than six decades and only the second major trophy in their history.

Ademola, a key member of the Super Eagles set-up, has dominated the headlines since the game in Dublin.

He has been a major talking point on traditional and social media globally.

To celebrate the feat, he shared the photos with the caption, "Friday Mood."
