The first match from the start. Then Sebastian Nanasi struck directly for Strasbourg.

The 22-year-old – who recently joined from Malmö FF – set 1–0 away against Lyon after just two minutes of play in the French Ligue 1. Nanasi received the ball in the penalty area and was able to calmly place the leading goal.

Then Lyon equalized just before the break, before Strasbourg pulled away with two goals at the beginning of the second half.

But the match still ended in a minor key for Strasbourg and Nanasi. For with three late goals, Lyon could turn the match around. Gift Orban became the big match hero. The Nigerian stood for both the equalizer and the decisive goal, 4–3.
