Ghanaian forward Ernest Nuamah delivered a standout performance, scoring twice in Olympique Lyon’s emphatic 4-0 victory over Steaua Bucharest to seal their place in the Europa League quarter-finals.
Nuamah, who has now scored in consecutive games for the French side, opened the scoring in the 37th minute, making amends for two earlier missed chances—one striking the post and another off the rebound.
He completed his brace in the 88th minute, finishing off a precise cross from Georges Mikautadze to cap a dominant display.
Lyon’s commanding performance secured a 7-1 aggregate victory, further cementing their European ambitions.
“Impressive in the final third again, the Ghanaian international was a dangerous figure throughout the night and was rewarded for his threat with two goals. His pace and ability to run at defenders proved vital in launching attacks,” the outlet noted.
