Forward Jerome Akor Adams played a crucial role as Montpellier secured a convincing 3-0 home victory against Toulouse in the Ligue 1 on Sunday.
Akor made a significant impact on the game, scoring two goals at the Stade de la Mosson-Mondial.
The 23 year-old scored his first goal in the 13th minute, providing Montpellier with an early lead.
In the 63rd minute, Montpellier extended their advantage thanks to a strike by Khalil Fayad.
Akor completed his brace and the team’s third goal, 18 minutes before the final whistle.
The former Flying Eagles striker, has now accumulated seven goals in nine league matches for Michel Dar Zakarian’s side.
In Ligue 1, only Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappe has scored more goals (eight) than the Nigerian this season.
Coach Emmanuel Amuneke has told footballlive.ng he is proud as well as excited to return to “second home” Egypt for Friday’s 2019 AFCON draw.
