It turned out to be a battle between two Super Eagles forwards in the competitive friendly involving Lorient and Nantes.
Preparations for the resumption of the French league continue for both clubs as Lorient hosted Nantes in a game that could have gone either ways.
Just three minutes into the game, Lorient and Super Eagles striker Terem Moffi found Julien Ponceau in the middle, who then adjusted Lafont to give the Hakes a 1-0 lead.
Moses Simon another Nigeria international, won’t let his team Nantes stay down for long.
Simon coiled a shot perfectly into the top corner, keeping the game at 1-1, fourteen minutes after Lorient took the lead.
After over an hour of football, Moffi was taken off and when the game was about to end in a draw, a cross from Sirine Doucouré was placed into the Nantes net by Adil Aouchiche, 2-1.
Both Moffi and Simon will be hoping to keep this form till the league resume in the December 28 when Nante play Troyes and Lorient Play Montpellier a day later.
