Ghana winger Ernest Nuamah played a key role in Olympique Lyon’s 2-0 victory over OGC Nice on Sunday at the Allianz Riviera in the French Ligue 1.
After a goalless first half, Rayan Cherki broke the deadlock in the 78th minute.
Just five minutes later, Nuamah sealed the win with a stunning long-range strike from outside the 18-yard box, securing all three points for Lyon.
Thiago Almada was instrumental in both goals, providing the assists that led to Lyon’s triumph.
With this goal, the former FC Nordsjaelland forward has now scored three times in Ligue 1 this season, along with one assist in 20 appearances.
The win has propelled Lyon to 6th place with 42 points. They will face FCSB in the Europa League on Thursday before hosting Le Havre on Sunday.
