Mahatma salvages point for Songndal

Mahatma Otoo’s fine run in the Norwegian league with Sogndal continued last Wednesday as he added to his goal tally with another strike to end the first round.

The Black Stars and former Hearts of Oak striker was in the thick of events as he redeemed an away point for Sogndal in their 1-1 drawn game against Strommen in Oslo.

Malian import Madiou Konate shot the homesters into the lead in the 44th minute and Otoo came close to scooping the equaliser before the end of the first half, but his brilliant bicycle kick rocked the woodwork.

However, the visitors came back strongly in the second half and the Ghanaian international capped their efforts as he brilliantly converted a penalty in the 57th minute.
