Striker Terem Moffi’s outstanding  Man-of-The-Match displays for FC Lorient against Clermont Foot in Ligue 1 on Sunday has not gone unnoticed as he was selected in the Team of The Week by French newspaper, L’Equipe.
The 23-year-old bagged a brace in the encounter to hand Lorient their second win of the season at the Stade du Moustoir to remain unbeaten so far.
Moffi opened scoring for Lorient with a 25th-minute penalty after Neto Borges clumsily brought down Dango Ouattara in his own area.
He then finished off a devastating counter-attack in the 41st minute, picking up the ball in his own half before skipping past two defenders and rounding the goalkeeper, before rolling the ball into an empty net.

Muhammed Cham pulled one back for Clermont on the hour mark.
The Nigerian was rated 8 out of 10 by L’Equipe and paired alongside Alexis Sanchez in attack in a 4-4-2 formation.
Other players who made the team include Monaco duo Youssouf Fofana and Mohamed Camara, as well as Jonathan Clauss and Nuno Tavares.
