On Sunday at the Stade de la Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau, Nantes and Ajaccio were tied 2-2 thanks to a late goal from Nigerian winger Moses Simon.



Before the game, the Canaries recognized Simon, who was making his 100th league appearance.

A draw was saved for the club by the 27-year-old in response to the special occasion.

After 66 minutes, Nantes was down 2-0 thanks to goals from Youcef Belaili and Romain Hamouma for the opposition.

The comeback, which was spearheaded by Ludovic Blas, erased the 20-minute deficit.

In the 89th minute, Simon scored the visitors' equalizer.

In 12 league games this year for Antoine Kombouare's team, he has now tallied four goals and two assists.
