According to L'Équipe, Sebastian Nanasi and Abdoul Ouattara struck to haul Strasbourg level by half-time against Mainz in the Europa Conference League quarter-final second leg. They had trailed by two after the 2-0 first-leg defeat.

On Thursday at La Meinau, Gary O'Neil's side attacked from the off to erase the gap as quickly as possible.

Diego Moreira went close with an acrobatic effort. Moments later, Nanasi converted Ben Chilwell's delivery to ignite the home crowd in the 26th minute.

A few minutes on, the right-back on the night Abdoul Ouattara powered in a header from a Julio Enciso cross from the right in the 35th minute.

At the interval Strasbourg had reset the tie on aggregate, leaving 45 minutes, or more, to make the difference and reach the last four.
