Nigerian striker Akor Adams marked his return from the Africa Cup of Nations in style, scoring two goals to help Sevilla FC secure a 2–2 draw against Elche in today’s LaLiga encounter.
Fresh from AFCON duty with the Super Eagles, Adams showed no signs of fatigue as he delivered a match-saving performance for the Spanish side. Sevilla had gone two goals down after strikes from Elche’s Aleix Febas and Germán Valera, putting the visitors under serious pressure.
But Adams turned the game around in the closing stages. He first pulled one back in the 75th minute, reacting quickly inside the box to give Sevilla hope. As the match approached full time, the Nigerian forward struck again from the spot, completing his brace to restore parity and rescue a point for his team.
The late comeback sparked celebrations among Sevilla players and fans, with Adams proving once again why he remains one of the club’s most important attacking options this season.
His performance adds to his growing reputation following his strong showing at AFCON and highlights his readiness to continue delivering at club level.
