Apart from scoring four goals in the ongoing I-League, he has provided many assists for the strikers which makes him such a lethal player. The trio of Nestor, Pedro Manzi and Sandro Rodriguez has been a nightmare for any team, together they have scored 11 goals out of the 16 the team has amassed.

The attacking midfielder will play an integral part in the remainder of the campaign if Chennai City FC re-creates an Aizawl FC-like triumph at the end of the season. With 18 points from 9 matches, the team from South India is at the 2nd position in the points table at present, just behind Real Kashmir. However, they trail only on goal difference and have a game in hand.

Chennai City FC now has a string of home matches starting from December 29 against Shillong Lajong FC.
