Super Eagles striker Josh Maja has been in scintillating form and was again on target as Bordeaux saw off Laval to claim all three points in a Ligue 2 match on Monday night.
Bordeaux are top of the Ligue 2 on 20 points thanks to a Maja Inspired victory against Laval.
The Nigerian had a slow start to the campaign which saw fans question his commitment to the club after they were relegated to the French second division, but 6 league goals in ten appearances this season seems to have silenced some of his critics.
Just five minutes into the game Maja received a short pass from a corner kick and sent a low drive into the net to open the scoring.
Although it took them a while to respond, Laval did equalize, scoring in the second half through Maggiotti.
But the scorelines didn’t remain the same for long, and substitute Alberth Ellis’ goal, just after 5 minutes of his introduction, bagged all three points and sent Bordeaux on the path to Ligue 1 promotion.
