Matthis Abline
Two goal contributions in win
Abline scored one goal and assisted once from three shots and three chances created in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Marseille. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 17th minute.
Analysis: Abline powered Nantes' three-goal surge in the second half, first whipping in a sharp cutback that Ignatius Ganago buried in the 50th minute before putting the exclamation point on his performance with a sensational solo run, slicing in from the right, beating both Facundo Medina and Leonardo Balerdi off the dribble, and ripping a pinpoint finish into the far corner. He closed with one goal, one assist, three shots with two on target, and three chances created, earning man-of-the-match honors. Abline now has a hand in 10 Ligue 1 goals this season, sitting just one shy of matching his career-best mark from last year.
Five shots in loss
Abline registered five shots (two on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 3-0 loss versus Paris Saint-Germain.
Analysis: Abline was the most active Nantes player in Wednesday's 3-0 defeat at Parc des Princes, registering five shots including a powerful free-kick attempt in the first half that Matvey Safonov was forced to push away, and was also caught offside once as his side struggled to create any sustained pressure against a dominant home defense. Abline leads his side's scoring charts with five goals and three assists across 29 Ligue 1 appearances this season.
