Goal and assist in victory
Ganago scored one goal and assisted once from three shots and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 win over Marseille.
Analysis: Ganago fired home the opener in the 50th minute, getting on the end of Matthis Abline's pinpoint cutback and guiding a right-footed finish into the far corner past Jeffrey De Lange, then flipped the script as a playmaker minutes later by slicing a sharp pass through the Marseille back line to tee up Remy Cabella's 54th minute strike following Tochukwu Nnadi's costly turnover in midfield. The striker was quiet before the break, but his aggressive runs and smart off-ball movement sparked Nantes' explosive eight-minute surge that effectively put the game away. Ganago now sits on three Ligue 1 goals in 12 appearances, and his second-half takeover was the clearest sign yet of Nantes' turnaround under new coach Vahid Halilhodzic.
Scores in 2-1 defeat
Ignatius Ganago scored one goal to go with four shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-1 loss versus Rennes.
Analysis: Ganogo scored and was assisted by Nicolas Cozza to bring the score back to 1-1. Rennes would go on to score late in the game, so Nantes would be defeated. He returned to the starting lineup having been on the bench in the last game. This was his third goal of the season and first goal since February. This is the fifth game this season that he has taken four shots.
