Ghana forward Abdul Majeed Waris played entire duration for Nantes as they suffered away defeat to Lille OSC in the French Ligue I.
Portuguese star and former Southampton defender Jose Fonte put the home side in front with just eight minutes played. Lille dominated the first half and had a goal to show for it.
Meanwhile, after the interval Nantes lifted their game with Waris threatening the defence of Lille but after creating numerous opportunities, they could not take advantage of that.
Jonathan Ikone made it two for Lille to put them in control of the game but with 8 minutes left to end the game Kalifa Coulibaly pulled one back for Nantes.
Abdul Majeed Waris is yet to open his goal-scoring account for Nantes since joining on loan from Porto.
