A Night to Remember for the Ghanaian Winger

On a thrilling Sunday night at the Allianz Riviera, Ghanaian winger Ernest Nuamah delivered a moment of brilliance to help Olympique Lyon secure a crucial 2-0 away victory against OGC Nice in the French Ligue 1.

The match remained tense and evenly contested until the 78th minute when Rayan Cherki broke the deadlock. Just five minutes later, Nuamah capitalized on an opportunity, showcasing his composure as he fired home Lyon’s second goal in the 83rd minute, sealing all three points for his side.

Reflecting on his performance, Nuamah shared his excitement:

“I got the ball back, I took my time, then I saw the target and it went in. We had the ball but lost it a lot, but in the second half, we settled down and found the spaces.”

He also emphasized the team’s chemistry and drive:

“We are happy, we play together, there is good energy, and that is reflected on the pitch. Every match, I try to score and help the team. It is not always at the Groupama Stadium, but it is also important away from home.”

With this goal, Nuamah has now scored three times in the Ligue 1 this season, alongside one assist in 20 appearances. His growing influence in Lyon’s attack continues to be a vital asset as they push forward in the league.
