Ghanaian forward Karim Sadat scored a brace as Halmstads BK came from behind to beat IK Sirius 2-1 in the Swedish Swedish Cup.

Sirius opened the scoring through Swedish center-back Jesper Arvidsson in the 13th minute from the spot.

But Halmstads restored parity, thanks to Karim Sadat's beautiful goal on the 25th minute of the game.

The former Hearts of Oak hitman was at it again as he hit the winner on the stroke of half time to help Halmstads of Svanska Cupen table with four points after two round of matches.

The 27-year-old lasted full duration of the match while his compatriot Thomas Boakye played only 21 minutes.

Sadat joined Halmstads BK on a free transfer during the last winter transfer window after ending his stay with Landskrona BoIS.
