Reagge Boyz striker Shamar Nicholson was again on the scoresheet for FC Spartak Moscow as they blanked FC Pari Nizhny Novgorod 2-0 in the Russian Premier League on Sunday.

Nicholson, who has been in good nick for Spartak, scored in extra time for their second of the fixture.

The Reggae Boy, who looked menacing all game, showed patience and composure following a storming run into the box before ripping a left-footed deflected shot, which looped over the keeper and into the goal.

The goal was Nicholson’s third in three league games following his brace in a Player of The Match performance against FC Rostov.

That strike solidified the win for Spartak after Théo Bengonda’s 68th-minute opener for the Russian league title contenders.

The victory sees sixth-place Spartak on 23 points, moving within a point of fifth-place CSK Moscow on 24 points.
