Nigeria international goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama was in supreme form on Friday as he helped Lille OSC move to the top of Ligue 1.

  Enyeama inspires Lille to top spot

Enyeama kept his place between the sticks ahead of Steve Elana as Les Douges won a tough match day two contest 1-0 against Caen at MMArena, Le Mans.

The 32-year-old had a busy evening as Caen, leaders of Ligue 1 from match day one dominated territorially with the home support in full voice.

Enyeama made four saves in the match, as Lille stormed to the summit of the log with four points from two games.

It was Enyeama’s second successive clean sheet in the competition after he shut out Metz on match day one at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

Lille’s trainer, Rene Girard was less than pleased with the display of his charges despite the win and guaranteed placing of top spot.

"We lacked discipline and rigour. Football is simple, and when it is complicated, it gets annoying. We floundered a bit, we never found the right solutions. We must do much better," he told the club’s website losc.fr after the game.

Next up for Enyeama and his teammates; a Uefa Champions League playoff game against FC Porto on Wednesday.
