Nigeria international winger Moses Simon came off the bench to score a late winner handing Nantes a 3-2 win over Lens in the French Ligue 1 yesterday.
Simon started the game from the bench and was introduced in the 70th minute with scores level at 2-2 against a Lens side who have been one of the surprise package of the season so far.
The Nigerian added to his tally of two goals this season with a late strike which will go down as one of his best goals so far in the colours of Nantes, the team he joined on a permanent deal last summer after a productive loan spell the previous season.
With less than a minute left to play and both teams looking like they have settled for a draw, Simon picked up a pass from the left and went past three Lens defender before rifling home a thunderous effort which made the stadium go wild.
It ended up as the winner for his team and once again cements his spots as one of the most influential player at the Ligue 1 side who are already imagining how they will cope when he departs for the Africa Cup of Nations in January.
