Super Eagles striker, Akor Adams has made a successful return to scoring, netting a goal in Sevilla\u2019s impressive 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid during a La Liga match on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n
Adams was not the only Super Eagles forward present at the Ramon S\u00e1nchez Pizju\u00e1n Stadium, as Ademola Lookman came on as a substitute in the 71st minute, while Chidera Ejuke remained an unused substitute for Los Rojiblancos.<\/p>\n
Adams, who is having a remarkable season, gave the hosts an early lead by calmly converting a penalty in the 10th minute.<\/p>\n
This goal marked the end of a three-match goal drought for the Nigerian forward, who had previously been unable to score against Barcelona, Valencia, and Real Oviedo.<\/p>\n
Atletico Madrid responded vigorously, equalizing late in the first half through young talent, Javier Bonar.<\/p>\n
However, Sevilla regained their advantage just before halftime when Nemanja Gudelj scored, lifting the spirits of the home crowd and alleviating rising relegation fears.<\/p>\n
Sevilla maintained their dominance after the interval, securing all three points, with Adams playing a vital role before being substituted for Batista Mendy in the 94th minute.<\/p>\n
This goal brings his total to eight league goals and three assists in 26 appearances this season, highlighting his significance in the team\u2019s battle for survival.<\/p>\n
The Nigerian international will find encouragement in his return to form as Sevilla strives to maintain their La Liga status.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Super Eagles striker, Akor Adams has made a successful return to scoring, netting a goal in Sevilla\u2019s impressive…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4267,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[1310,179,85,1462,327,109],"class_list":{"0":"post-4266","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-seville","8":"tag-akor-adams","9":"tag-atletico-madrid","10":"tag-laliga","11":"tag-lookman","12":"tag-sevilla","13":"tag-seville"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4266"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4266\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4267"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4266"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
