Ghana international Alexander Djiku has opened up on Strasbourg’s relegation battle in the ongoing French Ligue 1 campaign.
The relegation-threatened Strasbourg on Saturday defeated Lyon at away to better their chances of maintaining their status in the top-flight.
The tough-tackling defender started and lasted the entire duration in his outfits 2-1 win over Lyon at the Groupama Stadium.
Having battled for a point against second-place RC Lens in midweek, Strasbourg stunned Lyon at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais.
"In the mind, we will believe in it until the end. Thank you to all the supporters," wrote Djiku on social media.
Two goals in the space of three minutes saw Strasbourg race into a two-goal lead after 30 minutes, with Jean Eudes-Aholou and Habib Diallo scoring for the visitors.
Former Arsenal striker Alexander Lacazette pulled one back at the stroke of half time from the spot for Lyon.
Djiku, who is in the final six months of his contract, will be hoping to help Strasbourg avoid the drop this season.
The 28-year-old has made 18 appearances in all competitions, scoring one goal and providing one assist in the process.
