Sparta fans prepared a surprise for the Lyon players. They set off fireworks in front of their hotel!

Sparta will play their third Europa League group stage match against Olympique Lyon today, 21 October. The fans of Sparta Prague prepared a little surprise for the players of the French team by setting off fireworks in front of their hotel. You can see it for yourself.

Yes, this is also the way to go at the opponent. Prague Sparta fans visited the hotel where Olympique Lyon players are staying several times.

And through the fireworks they wished them a peaceful and safe sleep before the upcoming Europa League match.

It is very likely that the Spartan fans are trying to make life unpleasant for the guests from France. They must be well aware that any points from the double-header with Lyon could ultimately be worth gold.

“I have a lot of respect for them, but I also want us to do our best. Any points can mean a promotion to the spring cups, that’s what we want,” Vrba said at the press conference.

The Sparta coach is absolutely right about this. At the moment, it is Lyon who are at the top of the Group A table, having not lost a point and not yet scored.

Sparta is two points behind the table leader, but has a three-point lead over Brøndby. The last place in the group belongs to Scottish Rangers.

This and the next round of the groups will really tell who will enjoy promotion at the end and who will eventually be left with only the European Conference League.
