Enyeama Bounces Back

It was double celebration on Sunday evening  for Super Eagles captain Vincent Enyeama who registered his first clean sheet in five outings and more importantly his first win in five games with his French club Lille.

Coach Rene Girard’s men did make their numerical advantage as they dispersed Toulouse 3-0 in one of Sunday’s Ligue 1 fixtures.

Enyeama was in between the sticks with very little to do as his teammates made sure all three points are secured this time around.

Lille missed an early penalty gifted them after a foul on Divorck Origi however, the hosts made swift amends in the seventh minute as they open the scoring through Djibril Sidibe.

The visitors put up stout defensive afterwards but the caved in five minutes into the second half when another well laid out pass from Gueye fell to Ryan Mendes who made no mistake to double Lille’s advantage.

Any hopes for a comeback for Toulouse was extinguished in the 77th minute when Nolan Roux collected an Origi pass before tucking the ball into the bottom corner from close range.  

With the home win, Lille are now in 12th spot with 21 points albeit with a game at hand.
