French-Cameroonian-American striker Theoson Siebatcheu started and played 90 minutes, but didn’t score.
However, he did score two goals in Reims’ midweek 4-1 win over AJ Auxerre.

Siebatcheu is in sole possession of second place on the Ligue 2 scoring chart with 16 goals.
Now that the club season is winding down, the soccer/football/futbol world’s focus turns to the international side of things.
