It seems impossible for a Ligue 1 weekend to go by without a substantial contribution from an African player, and this past weekend in French football was no exception. Ghana national team rising star Kamaldeen Sulemana made it four goals from his first ten matches as a Stade Rennais player, and the 19-year-old’s goal on Sunday may have been the pick of the bunch. Making his way past multiple defenders in humiliating fashion, the attacker finished with aplomb from a difficult angle to make it 2-0 as his team cruised to a 3-0 road victory against Metz.
Check out all the goal contributions this past weekend from players in Ligue 1 who have represented African national teams.
