The former Hearts of Oak forward bagged a brace as Al Rustaq beat Dhofar 3-2 in the Lebanese top-flight league on Saturday.

With the game tied at 1-1, Dauda produced a moment of magic, latching on a through a pass in the box before unleashing his magical wand to confuse the Dhofar defender.

Shaping to shoot as he awaited the threaded pass, Dauda dropped his shoulder and sold the defender a dummy, forcing him to sit flat on his butt before rolling the ball from his favorite right foot onto his left to blast home.

It put Al Rustaq 2-1 up but stubborn Dhofar would not lie down without a fight. They drew level moments later.

Dauda completed his brace late in injury time to volley home the match-winner and send the fans into rapturous delirium
