Nigerian forward Victor Olatunji wasted no time reminding fans why he’s one to watch. The striker grabbed a crucial goal on Friday night to help Sparta Prague secure a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Mlada Boleslav in an intense pre-season match.

The clash between the two Czech Republic sides at the TCM Strahov started with an early twist, Footballrover reports.

Victor Olatunji strikes early for Sparta Prague

Mlada Boleslav shocked Sparta Prague when Filip Lehky scored just four minutes in. But Olatunji answered fast, restoring balance for Prague only four minutes later.

His goal lifted the team’s spirit and turned the momentum around.

By the 27th minute, Enes Osmani added a second for Prague, giving them a deserved 2-1 lead before halftime.

After the break, Olatunji made way for Vojtech Hranos, but the scoreline stayed the same until the final whistle — sealing a confident Sparta Prague win.

Promising pre-season signs for Victor Olatunji

The 25-year-old Nigerian star netted seven goals in 26 matches last season. With this early Sparta Prague pre-season goal, Victor Olatunji looks set for a bigger impact ahead.

Fans will surely hope he enjoys a strong, injury-free campaign full of goals.

Sparta Prague will now prepare to host FC Copenhagen in their next fixture on July 3rd, adding more pre-season action to watch.
