Eagles goalie Maduka Okoye impresses in Sparta win

Super Eagles shot-stopper, Maduka Okoye put up another fantastic performance as his team Sparta Rotterdam claimed a 3 - 1 away victory over their opponent.

Despite the difficult start to the season since joining from Fortuna Dusseldorf, Okoye has now been kept in goal in Sparta’s last six league games.

The 21-year-old would be disappointed to concede late in the game, but he was crucial to the away side victory, making two vital saves, Soccernet.ng said.

Lennart Thy opened the scoring for the Castle Lords inside six minutes before Deroy Duarte doubled the advantage on the stroke of half-time.

According to Soccernet.ng, Duarte then scored his second and Sparta’s third six minutes after the break, and it looked like Henk Fraser’s men would go away with the clean sheet until Kwasi Okyere Wriedt pulled one back in the third minute of added time for Willem.

Nonetheless, it was still a brilliant win for Sparta as they moved up to ninth on the table with 15 points from 12 games.
