Nigeria's Oparanozie and Mali's Traore fire Guingamp to victory over Fleury

Aissata Traore and Desire Oparanozie continued their impressive form in front of goal, scoring a goal each as Guingamp secured a 2-0 victory against Fleury in Saturday’s French top-flight game.

Guingamp were returning to Fleury-Mérogis where they earned a 2-1 hard-fought Coupe de France triumph last Sunday, with Malian striker Traore scoring her first goal of the season.

Frederic Biancalani’s team found themselves on the front foot as early as 18 minutes of the encounter after Traore opened the scoring for the visitors, with her first league goal this season.

After the break, the Nigeria international got on the scoresheet with a solo finish in the 72nd minute to guarantee the team's fifth victory of the season.
