Involved in three of Nantes‘ five goals against FC Lorient on Saturday, Moses Simon was one of the shining lights on Ligue 1 Uber Eats Round 6. The Nigerian international set up Matthis Abline’s and Florent Mollet’s goals (and then rounded out the scoring by converting a penalty) thus clocking his second and third assists of the season. This gave Simon a significant boost in the official assist rankings, moving him up from 37th to 4th place in the space of one match!
The diminutive winger, who arrived at FC Nantes from Levante in the summer of 2019, has rediscovered his form and efficiency in the early stages of the current season. With two goals and three assists, he has been directly involved in 45% of Les Canaris‘ goals this season. With a total of 129 Ligue 1 Uber Eats appearances, Simon has a total 24 goals and 25 assists to his name.
Josué Casimir on the podium
Just ahead of Nantes’ main man we find Josué Casimir, AC Le Havre’s surprise package. The Ciel et Marine also made two assists at the weekend to move into third place, also with three points. The 22-year-old, who scored Le Havre’s winner against Dijon FCO (1-0) last June, delivered two precise crosses from his right flank – for Nabil Alioui and then Mohamed Bayo. Both goals helped sixth-placed HAC to their second win of the season, against Clermont Foot (2-1).
