What does "struck a match" mean?
"He closed his eyes an instant but opening them his face lit up as though he had struck a match in a dark room."
Does it mean one hit his head on sth.?Like walk into a wall in dark?
Thanks.
To make a match ignite, we strike it. The rough sides on a matchbox where we strike the matches is called a strikepad.

= lit up, became bright, came into a new awareness, began something very fast and quickly. "Light a match under his ass " = motivate him, get him to see something new
