He opened score for the visiting team as early as the fourth minute after heading the ball home from a corner before Mohammed Sissoko restored parity for the Canaries in the 31st minute.

Nantes had the opportunity to lead as the first half came to an end, but Ludovic Blas missed a penalty in the 35th minute.

Nice came into the second half with more firepower, but it was Nice that scored when Moffi released the pass for Youssouf Ndayishimiye to restore the lead.
