Super Eagles Moses Simon, Nantes suffer a night to forget against Qarabag

Super Eagles winger Moses Simon and his French side Nantes had a night to forget in faraway Azerbaijan in the Europa League.

Simon was on the pitch for 76 minutes but was caged as Qarabag thrashed Nantes 3-0 in a one-sided affair.

The 26-year-old created two (2) chances, made two (2) key passes, completed two (2) dribbles and had two (2) shots on target.

However, his performance wasn't enough to earn Nantes at least a share of the draw as the Azerbaijan giant ran away comfortable winners.

After losing 2-1 to Freiburg in their opening game of the UEL season, Qarabag is back in business.

The home side is off the mark for the season after a convincing win over Nantes, inspired by their Ghanaian and Moroccan forwards.

After goalless opening half, Owusu Kwabena and Abdellah Zoubir scored a quick-fire double to completely change the game in favour of Qarabag.

Seven minutes after Zoubir doubled the advantage, Marko Jankovic added a third to seal the deal for the host.

The win sees Qarabag leapfrog Simon's Nantes to second in the group, with both teams still tied on three points.

Freiburg remains top of the group after a similar result away at Olympiacos on Thursday night.
