Latvian striker Raimonds Krollis found the net for the first time since July 20, helping his side Slovan Liberec to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Slovacko in the Czech First League. Krollis also added an assist in what was one of his most complete performances of the season.
The 24-year-old started the match in the lineup and made an immediate impact. Breaking through the defensive line, Krollis went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and coolly slotted the ball home – his second goal of the season and his first since mid-summer.
In the second half, the Latvian forward turned provider, delivering a precise cross from the right flank into the box, where Austrian midfielder Ermin Mahmic arrived unmarked to make it 2-0. Krollis later thought he had added another goal, but it was ruled out for offside.
Moments later, Liberec struck a third time to seal the victory and secure all three points. Krollis played 79 minutes before being substituted.
So far this season, the Latvian international has recorded two goals and one assist in ten league appearances. After 14 rounds, Slovan Liberec sit in sixth place with 20 points, and they will host Karviná next Sunday.
