Ghana international Gideon Mensah impressed on yet another outing for AJ Auxerre who moved to the third position on the Ligue 2 table.
The defender played the entire duration of the game as Auxerre commanded a 4-0 win over Annecy Football Club on Tuesday night.
While he forced an own goal from an opposition player last weekend, there was no denying Mensah an assist this time around as he Florian Aye for the club’s second goal of the game.
A Kevin Mouanga own goal gave Auxerre the lead at home before Mensah and Ayew combined for the game’s second.
The game also saw Black Stars midfielder Elisha Owusu come into the starting lineup after making an appearance off the bench to score the winner over the weekend.
Owusu played 71 minutes of Tuesday’s encounter before being substituted.
Gaetan Perrin and Rayan Raveloson scored the third and fourth goals respectively as Auxerre cruised to a 4-0 win at home.
With Tuesday’s game, Mensah has now started six games for the club in Ligue 2 this season, registering one assist in the process.
Auxerre (15) are current four points off the top spot which is occupied by Laval while Grenoble occupy the second position with 16 points.
