Slavia Prague endured a painful 3-2 defeat at home against Lens, surrendering their lead by conceding twice during a chaotic stoppage-time period. The hosts were forced to play with ten men for much of the second half after Mikuláš Konečný was dismissed following a VAR review shortly after the interval.
Despite the numerical disadvantage, Danijel Sturm gave Slavia the lead, and after Abdallah Sima leveled the score for Lens, Sturm struck again in the 88th minute to seemingly secure the win. However, the visitors mounted a late surge, with Florian Thauvin finding the net in the 91st minute.
Lens completed their remarkable turnaround moments later when Ruben Aguilar delivered a precise finish to snatch all three points, leaving the home side empty-handed after a hard-fought performance. The report also notes that only for Sturm to send the home crowd into raptures with his second goal in the 88th minute, abdallah Sima finally broke Slavia’s resistance with an equaliser.
