The 21-year-old was on target for the seven-time champions in their 4:0 win against visiting Lorient.

Earlier in the day N'Jie had agreed a deal to remain at Lyon until 2019.

"I'm happy" - Now we have to continue working. 

I want to score, to play and I hope we can qualify for Europe next season," he told Lyon's website: 

"I'm proud of myself."

I want to also thank everyone who helped me get this far.

This extension shows that the team has confidence in me."

N'Jie has made a superb start to his international career with the Indomitable Lions.

He scored on his debut on 6 September in a 2:0 win away to Democratic Republic of Congo and four days later he grabbed a brace to help Cameroon beat Ivory Coast 4:1.
