Supporting them are Bahereba Guirassy, Mostafa Mohamed and Douglas, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Nantes’s attack.

Meanwhile, Lens’s leading scorer M'Bala Nzola and Przemyslaw Frankowski have played significant roles in the team’s attack, crafted under Will Still’s leadership, each providing decisive moments in their offensive play. Nzola has emerged as Lens’s leading scorer in Ligue 1 this season, netting six goals, as Thomasson continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with four assists.
