Nigerian striker, Victor Olatunji, was named Man of the Match as Sparta Prague defeated Sigma 2-1 in a Chance Liga clash on Saturday.

Olatunji came off the bench to deliver another match-winning performance for his side.

It was his second goal in consecutive matches for the league leaders.

Olatunji’s goal, which came in the 87th minute, took his tally to seven goals for the season.

Sparta took the lead in the 25th minute through Jan Kuchta, who converted a close-range effort from a corner.

Sigma Olomouc were level 12 minutes later, with Filip Zorvan finishing off a brilliant team move.

Olatunji was introduced in the 61st minute to replace Albion Rrahmani and 26 minutes later, he latched onto a long pass from Jaroslav Zeleny, before coolly slotting the ball past Sigma Olomouc’s goalkeeper Jan Koutny.

The win lifted Sparta Prague to second place in the league, 10 points behind leaders Slavia Prague, who have a game in hand.

Both sides face off in a highly anticipated Prague Derby on March 8.
