Maduka Okoye and Chiamaka Nnadozie experienced agonizing weekends as their teams conceded three goals each, while Rafiu Durosinmi netted for Genk and Tochukwu Nnadi recorded his first assist of the season for Marseille. Alex Iwobi and Akor Adams each scored for their respective clubs, and Victor Osimhen's impressive run came to an end.
Udinese suffered their fifth consecutive defeat, losing 3-0 to Lecce, with Okoye making eight saves despite the loss. Chukwueze started for AC Milan in their 3-2 win over Atalanta, but was substituted in the 53rd minute. He was involved in the build-up to Ramos's disallowed effort and missed a chance just wide. Nnadi made his first start of the season and set up Harit's goal in Marseille's 5-2 win over Angers, marking his first assist of the campaign.
Maja came on as a substitute for Le Havre, which lost 3-1 to Auxerre, while Simon scored a dramatic penalty to give Paris FC their first win over Rennes in 46 years.
