Nigerian winger Moses Simon rescued a point for Nantes on his 100th appearance for the French club as they played a 2-2 draw against AC Ajaccio on Sunday, November 13.

The Canaries fought back from two goals down with Simon getting the last gasp with his 89th-minute strike in a four-goal thriller in the second half.

Algerian forward Youcef Belaïli gave the away side ahead in the 57th minute before French winger Romain Hamouma doubled the lead in minute 66.

Midfielder Ludovic Blas reduced the deficit 3 minutes later before Moses levelled the score at the dying embers of the game to send the home side to wild jubilations.

The Super Eagles winger has so far managed 5 goals and 2 assists for Nantes this season.

Moses will return to action for the Super Eagles when they take on Portugal in a pre-World Cup friendly on Thursday, November 17.
