Paris FC Triumph Over Montpellier in 4-2 Thriller Despite Onumonu's Brace

In an action-packed Arkema Première Division match, Paris FC overcame Montpellier with a 4-2 victory at the Stade Charléty. The game saw impressive performances from Super Falcons stars Ifeoma Onumonu and Chiamaka Nnadozie, as both players represented their respective clubs in a thrilling encounter.

Paris FC took an early lead in the 11th minute with Clara Matéo setting up Mathilde Garbino to score. However, Montpellier’s Nigerian forward Ifeoma Onumonu responded in style, leveling the score at 1-1 in the 26th minute, demonstrating her remarkable striker instincts. Onumonu’s goal was only a brief equalizer, as Paris FC's Gaëtane Bussy restored the lead at 2-1 just six minutes later.

The game intensified in the second half, with Montpellier pushing hard for another equalizer. Onumonu once again found the back of the net in the 78th minute, scoring her second goal of the match and leveling the game at 2-2. Her brace kept Montpellier in the hunt for points and showcased her lethal finishing abilities.

Despite Onumonu’s heroics, Paris FC surged back late in the game to secure the win. Camille Dufour struck in the 88th minute to give Paris FC a 3-2 advantage. Then, in added time, Dufour sealed the victory with her second goal of the evening, ending the game at 4-2 in favor of the hosts.

The match highlighted Onumonu’s impressive form, as she tested her Nigerian international teammate Chiamaka Nnadozie, who stood guard between the posts for Paris FC. Although Nnadozie conceded twice to her compatriot, Paris FC ultimately prevailed with two late goals to claim all three points.

This result strengthens Paris FC's position in the league, while Montpellier will look to bounce back in their upcoming matches. Onumonu's performance, despite the defeat, reaffirms her status as one of the top forwards in the French league, and Nnadozie’s resilience played a key role in Paris FC’s solid display. Fans are already looking forward to seeing more from these talented Super Falcons stars as the season progresses.
