Diaz marauds down the left and into the box. His cross is blocked but it's clipped back in to the middle for Gakpo who forces a fine save out of Vindahl low at his near post.

SPARTA PRAGUE CHANCE
Haraslín chases down a long ball over the top, rounds Kelleher, but is denied by Konate, who makes a fine tackle and then completes the clearance from inside the six-yard box.
The flag then goes up for offside, but it's another warning for the visitors.

SPARTA PRAGUE CHANCE
Birmancevic contrives to bundle wide at the far post after failing to sort his feet out.
It's a golden opportunity that came after Haraslín forced another save out of Kelleher.
Sparta are two down but they've had plenty to say in this first half and should have scored at least one goal.
