Bang Bang! Super Eagles star equals Neymar, Mbappe’s tally

The Super Eagles forward scored twice against Brest on Sunday to equal Neymar and Mbappe’s tally for the season 

Terem Moffi scored a double against Brest to score his 8th goal of the season – as many as Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.

Moffi has now scored 8 in 10 games and has now scored in every 101 minutes, the third best rate in the league behind Paris Saint Germain’s two attacking beauties.

The Nigerian has been one of the best in the league this season and has matched his last season goals return in just 10 games.

Moffi’s first goal came in the 24th minute before completing his double in the 53rd minute. The attacker has earned rave reviews this season and has also played his way into the current Super Eagles setup despite the avalanche of player at coach, Jose Peseiro’s disposal.

The former Kortrijk star has gone on to become a real star for Lorient this season and would cause teams to raise their heads in his direction after being linked with a transfer away from the club last season.

Moffi is powering Lorient to an impossible title push as they have won their last five games and are reeling in confidence at the moment.

Lorient currently sit second on the log with 25 points, just a point behind league leaders, PSG.
