The hero of the match for Nantes was Serge Gakpé, who played a pivotal role in their victory. The Togolese striker opened the scoring just three minutes into the game, marking his second goal in the last three matches. Gakpé didn’t stop there, as he provided a crucial assist to Koffi Djidji for Nantes’ second goal, which put them ahead 2-0. Djidji, a Franco-Ivorian defender, capitalized on the opportunity to score his first goal in Ligue 1.
However, there was a moment of disappointment for Gakpé as he inadvertently scored an own goal, allowing Montpellier to reduce the deficit. Fortunately for Nantes, this didn’t have much impact on the final result, as no further goals were scored until the end of the match.
Overall, it was a significant victory for Nantes, and Gakpé’s contributions were instrumental in securing the much-needed three points for his team.
