Majeed Waris quenches 4-month goal scoring drought in victory against Olympique Nimes

Majeed Waris came off the substitute bench to end his fifteen-match goalscoring jinx for SC Strasbourg in the 5-0 mauling against Olympique Nimes in the French Ligue 1 in midweek.

Waris finally got a smile on his face after breaking his fifteen-game goalscoring drought in Strasbourg shirt.

It has taken the Ghanaian forward four months to return to the scoring-sheet since plundering in the 3-0 victory against Stade Reims on September 2, 2020.

Strasbourg made a light work of Nimes in midweek, inflicting a 5-0 defeat on them at the Stade de la Meinau.

A brace from Ludovic Ajorque and goals from Kenny Lala and Habibou Mouhamadou Diallo handed Strasbourg a 4-0 lead before the hour mark.

Majeed Waris replaced two-goal hero Ludovic Ajorque in the 73rd minute.

The 29-year-old found joy in front of goal on the 90th-minute mark after planting his spot-kick beyond the reach of goalkeeper Bapstiste Reynet.

Waris has made 11 appearances for Strasbourg in the ongoing season.
