Kluivert opens Nice account in behind closed doors fixture

Kluivert, son of former Netherlands forward Patrick Kluivert, made his contributions before going off injured after 35 minutes

The match at the Allianz Riviera was played behind closed doors after a pitch invasion during last Sunday's game with Marseille.

Another Algerian international Hicham Boudaoui broke down the right before crossing for Kluivert, who side-footed home. Kluivert turned provider just after the half hour. He led a counter-attack, charging towards the Bordeaux box before feeding Amine Gouiri to finish easily.

Following his early heroics, Kluivert's game was over after a little over half an hour due to a thigh injury and replaced by debutant Calvin Stengs, who joined from AZ Alkmaar in July. French under-21 international Gouiri then took his tally for the season to three, by converting a penalty four minutes before the break.
