Mario Balotelli attempted to help a pitch 1nv4der after he st0rmed the pitch in order to celebrate his latest goal for Nice, which earned them a 2-1 victory over fifth-placed Nantes in Ligue 1. The Italian striker had just missed a more straightforward chance when he sent a first-time volley into the bottom right corner in the 75th minute, a display of skill reminiscent of his days as a more prominent footballer. It was Balotelli's ninth goal in 12 Ligue 1 games and prompted one fan to sprint onto the field to congratulate him. The match was briefly held up while security staff wrestled the intruder to the ground and then removed him, but not before Balotelli reach him.
