Nabil Fekir provides moments of pure magic. On LaLiga Santander Matchday 28, during Real Betis' home match against Levante UD, he scored a superb solo goal that Maradona himself would have been proud of. But his contribution to the team goes much further. With three goals and six assists, this season with just 9 games remaining-, the French international has been key to the Verdiblancos good season.
