Togo starlet Denkey on target in Nimes' rout of Brest

Togolese teenager Kevin Denkey and Senegal's Moussa Kone found the back of the net as Nimes started their 2020-21 Ligue 1 season with an emphatic 4-0 win against Brest on Sunday.

Denkey gave the hosts an early lead at Stade des Costieres with his eighth-minute effort, thanks to an assist from Birger Meling.

The strike was the 19-year-old’s fourth Ligue 1 goal since his debut outing against Monaco a year ago.

Towards the end of the first-half, Meling stretched the lead for Jerome Arpinon's men with his goal in the 31st minute.
