Brilliant Balogun blasts past Moffi, Mbappe with perfect performance against Bonke’s Lorient

The Anglo-Nigerian forward delivered one of his finest displays since moving to France as he led the Red and Whites to an emphatic come-from-behind triumph

Folarin Balogun scored the first hat-trick of his senior career as he helped Reims roared from a two-goal deficit to beat Lorient 4-2 in a Ligue 1 match on Wednesday night.

On loan from Arsenal, Balogun has been the revelation of the season in the French top flight making himself a consistent goal scoring medium for Reims.

And only a few days after netting a stunning, late equaliser in the 1-1 draw away to champions PSG, Balogun produced the goods again for the Reds and White against Lorient.
