The 23-year-old Agbo found the back of the net, providing a consolation goal for his team in the Finland Liigacup Group A round 1 game.
The game started with Netherlands midfielder Colin Odutayo opening the scoring for Lahti in the 19th minute, putting the visitors ahead. Argentine forward Michael Lopez extended Lahti’s lead six minutes later, adding to the pressure on Gnistan.
However, with just two minutes remaining in the first half, David Agbo seized the opportunity to reduce the deficit for Gnistan, ending the opening period with a score of 2-1 in favor of Lahti.
