Lens produced a stunning stoppage-time comeback to secure a dramatic 3-2 victory over Slavia Praha at Fortuna Arena in the UEFA Champions League. Following a quiet, goalless first half where both sides mirrored each other in 3-4-2-1 systems under J. Trpišovský and D. Toppmöller, the contest exploded into life in the second period.
The drama started shortly after the break when a VAR review led to a 49th-minute yellow card for Slavia defender Mikulas Konecny. Just two minutes later, Danijel Sturm broke the deadlock to put the home side in front. Lens responded in the 73rd minute through Abdallah Sima, who found an equalizer before being substituted.
Slavia appeared to have secured the victory when Sturm struck his second goal of the night in the 88th minute to make it 2-1. However, the French outfit staged an incredible recovery in the final moments of normal time.
Florian Thauvin leveled the score for Lens in the 90th minute, and moments later Ruben Aguilar struck to cap off the remarkable turnaround and claim all three points. The thrilling result ensures Lens make it one win from their last one meeting with Slavia Praha.
