Victor Osimhen fires Sporting Charleroi into Europa League playoffs final

Victor Osimhen scored a pair of goals as Sporting Charleroi reached the Belgian Europa League playoffs final after a 2-1 victory over KV Kortrijk on Wednesday.

The 20-year-old was handed his eighth appearance in the competition this season by manager Mehdi Bayat.

The Zebras started the game on the back foot after Nigeria’s Imoh Ezekiel opened the scoring for Yves Vanderhaeghe’s men in the sixth minute.

Three minutes before the interval, Osimhen turned the game around for his side by igniting the comeback with his strike in the 42nd minute.
