Daka's double sends RB Salzburg into Champions League group stage

Patson Daka propelled RB Salzburg into the 2020-21 Uefa Champions League group stage with his brace in their 3-1 triumph over Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Jesse Marsch's side secured a 5-2 aggregate win in Wednesday's playoff after securing a first-leg advantage with a 2-1 victory in Israel last week.

Daka broke the deadlock for the hosts with his opener in the 16th minute and he later sealed their win with his second effort of the night in the 68th minute.

The 21-year-old who is reportedly linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur this summer, has been in blistering goalscoring form this season with a tally of nine goals in six matches so far.
