Ghanaian Black Stars winger, Ernest Nuamah, showcased his exceptional playmaking skills on Friday night, playing a pivotal role in Olympique Lyon's success over OGC Nice in a thrilling French Ligue 1 encounter.

The highly talented winger secured a spot in the starting lineup for Lyon during the home match hosted at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais.

In the 22nd minute of the Round 22 clash in the ongoing French Ligue 1 campaign, Nuamah delivered a crucial assist that ultimately led to the sole goal of the match.

The former FC Nordsjaelland forward orchestrated a perfect setup for Orel Mangala, enabling Lyon to take a lead into the first-half break.

Despite OGC Nice's efforts to stage a comeback in the second half, Lyon's defense remained resilient, securing a narrow victory for the team at the conclusion of the 90 minutes.

Nuamah exhibited his prowess throughout the match, contributing immensely for 79 minutes before being substituted by Rayan Cherki.

In the current season, the 20-year-old Ghanaian sensation has made a total of 18 appearances for Olympique Lyon, showcasing his skills with one goal and two assists to his name.
