Emmanuel Ogbole produced a dramatic late moment to hand CS Sfaxien a famous away victory over US Monastir, scoring the decisive goal that ended the hosts’ remarkable six-season unbeaten home run.
The Nigerian forward struck in the 86th minute, finishing clinically to break the deadlock and spark wild celebrations among the travelling CS Sfaxien players and supporters. His well-taken effort ultimately proved to be the defining moment of a tightly contested match.
Both teams had battled intensely throughout the encounter, with few clear chances created as defensive discipline and tactical caution dominated much of the game. Monastir, backed by their strong home record, looked determined to extend their impressive streak, while Sfaxien remained patient in search of a breakthrough.
That decisive moment finally arrived late in the second half when Ogbole capitalised on an attacking opportunity to find the back of the net, stunning the home crowd and shifting the momentum firmly in favour of the visitors.
The goal carried historic significance beyond the result itself. US Monastir had maintained an extraordinary unbeaten record at home for six consecutive seasons, turning their ground into one of the toughest venues for visiting teams in Tunisian football. Ogbole’s late strike brought that remarkable run to an end.
For CS Sfaxien, the victory represents a major statement and a valuable boost to their campaign, proving their ability to overcome one of the league’s most formidable home sides.
For Ogbole, the moment will be remembered as a defining contribution — the goal that not only secured a famous away win but also ended one of the longest home unbeaten streaks in the competition.
