Oparanozie plays key role as Dijon silence Le Havre

Desire Oparanozie made an impactful contribution for Dijon after providing an assist to lead her side to a 2-0 win at Le Havre in a French D1 Arkema encounter on Saturday.

The Nigeria international earned her 13th start of the season for Yannick Chandioux's team, following her superb contribution in a 3-1 win over Fleury 91 before bowing 2-0 to Lyon a week ago.

To bounce back from the Lyon defeat the last time out, the Dijonnaise travelled to their struggling hosts with the sole ambition of returning to winning ways, and they eventually achieved it.
