Decisive figure sets the tone for Le Havre at Angers | OneFootball

Sofiane Boufal struck in the 13th minute with a composed finish to put Le Havre ahead in a 1-1 draw at Angers. His early incision framed the visitors' most threatening spells.

He arrived in the box to sweep a right-footed effort into the bottom left (13.). Issa Soumaré supplied the pass, with Boufal timing his run through the centre.

Boufal then slipped Rassoul Ndiaye into space for a low drive that Hervé Koffi saved (42.). Moments later, he combined with Soumaré again to force another stop from the goalkeeper (52.).

His angled pass teed up Mbwana Samatta for a blocked attempt (63.). The Morocco international finished with three key passes, one big chance created and four dribbles, underlining his role as Le Havre's chief creator before he was withdrawn (80.).

Finding pockets between Angers' lines, Boufal drew two fouls and kept defenders guessing with constant movement, ensuring Le Havre controlled the most dangerous moments built around him.
