The 15th round of the French Ligue 1 took place last weekend, featuring notable performances from African players.
One standout display came from Franco-Tunisian striker Ben Yedder of Toulouse, who secured a hat-trick against FC Sochaux. His three goals were crucial in defeating the opposition and overshadowed Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s double from the penalty spot in the match against Lyon.
Another noteworthy contribution came from Vincent Enyama during the Valenciennes vs. Lille encounter. The Nigerian goalkeeper played a decisive role, helping Lille secure yet another narrow victory without conceding any goals. Enyama’s impressive streak of being unbeaten for 945 minutes earned him a spot in the best XI for the 15th round.
Enyama is not the lone representative from Lille in the standout players of the week. His teammate Souaré also played a significant role in the team’s success, propelling them to the second position in the league standings, trailing behind Paris Saint-Germain.
