Ghana's international star, Denis Odoi, put on a remarkable display, contributing significantly to Club Brugge's crucial away victory against Anderlecht in the Belgium Jupiler Pro League.

The stalwart defender from the Black Stars was on the field for the full match, playing a pivotal role in his team's 1-0 triumph at Lotto Park.

It was Odoi's decisive goal in the 29th minute that distinguished the two sides, ensuring that Club Brugge clinched all three points in this top-tier contest.

The seasoned 35-year-old Ghanaian defender has been a consistent presence this season, making 37 appearances and netting two goals for Club Brugge.

His performance has set the stage for his anticipated inclusion in the Black Stars' lineup for the forthcoming 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic.

Odoi also made significant contributions to the Black Stars' matches against Nigeria and Uganda during the international break in March.
