Charles Sarpong’s wonder strike downs NYCFC in MLS

Major League Soccer based Ghanaian forward Charles Sarpong extended his impressive scoring run in the league to earn three crucial points for the Philadelphia Union.

The in-form centre-forward took his season tally to four goals in six matches as Philadelphia spanked New York City FC 2-0 to continue their fine form in the MLS.

The rampant attacker stole the headlines with yet another stunning strike to add to his gallery of goals in a hugely productive season.

Charles Sarpong followed up an opening strike from Chris Pontius to double the lead for the Philadelphia Union with five minutes to recess.

The 26-year-old had earlier registered three other impressive strikes against New England Revolution and Orlando City.

Compatriot Kojo Poku led the line for NYCFC in that surprise 2-0 setback for the hugely expensive City side.
