Super Eagles forward Moses Simon is back among the goals after firing Paris FC to a hard-fought 1–0 win over AS Monaco in their Ligue 1 Round 11 clash on Saturday evening.

The Nigerian international’s strike at the Stade Louis-II ended a frustrating drought and gave the newly promoted side a crucial away victory.

Moses Simon Ends Goal Drought with Decisive Strike

After a tense first half that offered little in attack, Simon Moses produced the game’s defining moment just eight minutes into the second period.

The 30-year-old showed sharp instincts inside the box to bury his chance past the Monaco goalkeeper—a goal that ultimately sealed all three points for the visitors.

The result lifted Paris FC to 10th on the table with 14 points, a remarkable rise for a team still adjusting to life in the top flight.

Moses’ performance reflected both experience and hunger, attributes the side has leaned on in their early-season battles.

Super Eagles Star Regains Form After Two-Month Wait

The goal marked Moses Simon’s first in over two months, ending a run of seven league appearances and four international outings without finding the net.

His last goals came in August — first in a 5–2 defeat to Marseille and then in a 3–2 win over Metz.

With this latest strike, the Nigerian winger now boasts five goal contributions in 11 Ligue 1 matches this season — three goals and two assists.

His influence in the team will be vital as Paris FC continue to chase consistency in their Ligue 1 campaign.

Moses completed the full 90 minutes, while his compatriot George Ilenikhena featured late on for Monaco, coming off the bench with nine minutes to play.

But in the end, Moses’ decisive goal not only silenced the home crowd but also reminded fans and critics of his enduring quality.
