Moffi relieved to be back in action for Lorient

Terem Moffi has expressed his gladness to be back scoring for FC Lorient despite his club-side suffering a slender 2-1 defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in a league encounter.

Moffi on his return to Lorient’s starting line-up scored his ninth goal of the 2022/23 Ligue 1 season but it was not enough for Lorient to avoid a 2-1 defeat at home to PSG.

Neymar broke the deadlock for the reigning Ligue 1 champions after just nine minutes but Moffi restored parity eight minutes after the break for his first goal in three games.

After some great link-up play, Moffi latched onto Enzo Le Fee’s pass and fire beyond a helpless Gianluigi Donnarumma who hadn’t conceded in his previous five away league games.

Only the crossbar denied Moffi a second goal in quick succession in what was a firecracker of a return to the starting line-up since going off injured against Stade de Reims.

It was his third goal in five games against PSG and Moffi who has netted nine times in 13 Ligue 1 matches this season wrote on Twitter account: “Good to be back. We go again!”
