Mostafa Mohamed has had a start to the season as effective as one of the legends of FC Nantes.

The goal from a direct free kick Mostafa Mohamed, registered on Saturday in the 55th minute of the FC Nantes-Lorient match, will undoubtedly feed social networks all weekend. The Egyptian striker especially marked the history of the Canaries in this meeting of the 6th day of Ligue 1.

Mohamed is the first FCN player, since the Chadian Japhet N’Doram in 1995-1996, to score five goals after six days of the French Championship. The ex-Galatasaray player found the opposing net against Toulouse, Monaco and Marseille.
