Ghanaian striker Abdul Majeed Waris bagged his first goal of the season in Strasbourg's 5-0 win over Nimes 5-0 in the French Ligue 1 on Wednesday.
The 29-year-old climbed off the bench to help his side cruise to a comfortable victory at Stade de la Meinau.
Ludovic Ajorque opened the scoring for the hosts in the 36th minute of the game before Senegal international Habib Diallo doubled the lead two minutes later.
Moments before the end of the first half, Kenny Lala made it three for the Stade de la Meinau outfit with a fine individual effort.
Ajorque got his second in the encounter in the 51st minute after receiving a timely assist from Anthony Caci.
In the 73rd minute, Waris was introduced into the game, replacing Ajorque, and made his presence felt when he sealed his side’s victory.
The forward made no mistake in sending goalkeeper Reynet to the wrong side of the goal, firing his penalty to the back of the net.
The victory moved Strasbourg out of the bottom three to the 16th spot after gathering 17 points from 18 games.
Waris has made 11 league appearances and scored one goal for Strasbourg so far this season.
The former FC Porto striker will hope to continue his impressive performances when his side slug it out against Lens in their next league game on Saturday.
