Brice Samba earned the plaudits for a man-of-the-match display for Lens at Nantes at the weekend. However, one former Nottingham Forest team-mate wasn’t quite so gushing with his praise as he shared a joke with the Congolese keeper.
Samba faced 10 shots in the goalless draw and according to Ligue1.com, Lens’ point “was thanks in no small part to the Congolese”.
The 28-year-old “pulled off a brilliant stop” to deny Ludovic Blas while his contribution “simply shouldn't be overlooked”.
