LOSC delivered a stunning performance this weekend, crushing FC Metz (6-1) during the 9th round of Ligue 1. This resounding victory allows the Dogues to climb to 5th place in the standings, just three points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain.
In a jubilant Pierre-Mauroy stadium, Hamza Igamane showcased his talent once again. The Moroccan forward opened the scoring in the 24th minute after a superb team play: launched by Fernandez-Pardo, he placed his shot perfectly into the far corner with a well-placed cross shot. A clinical finish that confirmed his excellent form at the moment.
In the absence of Olivier Giroud, Bruno Genesio can rely on a confident Igamane. With this new goal, the Moroccan has brought his total to four goals in Ligue 1 this season, proving that he is much more than just a backup.
Félix Correia then took over with a brace and an assist, while Romain Perraud, Benjamin André, and Hakon Haraldsson completed Lille’s success. Only Ibou Sané salvaged a consolation goal for Metz in stoppage time.
With 4 goals and 1 assist in 7 Ligue 1 matches, and 7 goals in all competitions, Hamza Igamane is establishing himself as one of the revelations of the season’s start. His efficiency and goal-scoring instinct confirm that he has everything to become a key player in Bruno Genesio’s project — and a major asset for the Moroccan national team.
