Moses Simon Runs Riot As Nantes Thrash PSG In Ligue 1

Super Eagles winger, Moses Simon put in a sterling performance as Nantes beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 at home on Saturday.

Infoexpert24 understands that it was only PSG’s second defeat of the campaign.

Moses Simon set up Randal Kolo Muani to open the scoring with a storming run down the left.

They doubled their lead 12 minutes later when Quentin Merlin netted his first goal for Nantes.

PSG was punished for Georginio Wijnaldum’s handball, with Ludovic Blas converting the spot-kick to put them 3-0 up.

Neymar pulled one back for PSG, who started the game 13 points clear of second-placed Olympique de Marseille.

The Brazilian then had a chance to further reduce the deficit when Appiah again brought down Mbappe, but Neymar’s penalty was a weak effort straight at Alban Lafont.
