Mikel Obi’s Trabzonspor debut ended in a draw and a failure to last 90 minutes against Sparta Prague in Thursday’s Europa League third round first leg qualifying clash.

Trabzonspor fought back from two goals down to record a 2-2 draw in Prague.

Goals from Caleb Ekuban and substitute Alexander Soerloth for the Turkish club cancelled out strikes from Costa Nhamoinesu and Guelor Kanga.

The 32-year-old, who joined Trabzonspor, on a two-year deal, was handed a starting role in the draw and was cautioned in the 32nd minute of the match.
