Jerome Akor makes Team of the Week

Montpellier forward, Jerome Akor, has solidified his presence in the Ligue 1 spotlight by securing a well-deserved spot in the coveted Team of the Week. This remarkable achievement comes hot on the heels of Akor’s remarkable performance for Montpellier.

The former Flying Eagles prodigy left a resounding mark on the pitch during his debut for Montpellier, orchestrating a thrilling 2-2 draw against Le Havre. Akor’s brilliance was on full display as he gracefully netted not just one, but two remarkable goals.

At the 58th-minute mark, Akor unleashed his prowess, driving the ball into the net and leveling the playing field for Montpellier. With unwavering determination, he then seized the spotlight once again, seizing the lead for the home team at the hour mark. The electrifying atmosphere was a testament to the young forward’s undeniable talent and dedication.

Despite the nail-biting turn of events, Le Havre managed to secure a late equalizer, leaving the match with a share of the spoils. Yet, Akor’s heroic performance had already etched an unforgettable chapter in the annals of Ligue 1 history.

Akor’s meteoric rise to fame is marked by his recent transfer from the esteemed Norwegian club, Lillestrom. His legacy there was nothing short of extraordinary, having gracefully slammed 15 goals into the net in a mere 15 league appearances. His undeniable skill, combined with his unyielding passion, perfectly positioned him for this pivotal move to Montpellier.
