Liverpool fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to give their reaction to the performance of Mario Balotelli for Nice at the weekend.

Balotelli made his competitive debut for French club Nice against Marseille at home in Ligue 1 on Sunday evening.

The Italy international striker started the match at the Allianz Riviera and played for the entire 90 minutes.

The 26-year-old had a memorable debut, as he scored two goals for Nice in a 3-2 victory over Marseille.

The former Manchester City striker also created one chance, and had a pass accuracy of 67% and a shot accuracy of 100%, according to Squawka.com.

Balotelli joined Ligue 1 outfit Nice in the summer transfer window after leaving Liverpool.

During his time at Anfield, the former Inter Milan striker failed to do much of note, scoring just one goal and creating only seven chances in 16 Premier League matches during the 2014-15 season before joining AC Milan on loan for the 2015-16 campaign.
