Moses Usor added another goal to a season that keeps getting better, coming off the bench to score LASK’s third in a comfortable 3-1 home win over Rapid Vienna on Monday, Footynaija.com reports.
The 24-year-old Abuja-born winger has been one of the most productive attackers in Austrian football this season, and his latest contribution takes his tally to 15 goals across all competitions.
The timing could not be more pointed. Eric Chelle is finalising his Unity Cup squad, and Usor has done everything short of knocking on the coach’s door directly.

LASK are on the verge of completing a historic domestic double. They claimed the Austrian Cup last week for the first time in 61 years, beating SCR Altach 4-2 after extra time in a final that was heavily shaped by Nigerian firepower.
Usor opened the scoring in the 11th minute, Adeniran equalised and then scored again in extra time, and Abuja-born United States international George Bello struck the decisive third. Three of LASK’s four goals came from players of Nigerian heritage.
A season that demands attention
Monday’s win over Rapid keeps LASK on course for the Bundesliga title that would complete an Austrian double no previous LASK side has ever achieved.
Usor has been central to that push, registering ten goal involvements in his last 12 league appearances before today’s contribution, a run of form that reflects a player operating at a level well above the Austrian top flight.
He came through the Slavia Prague setup in the Czech Republic before joining LASK, giving him a base of Central European football experience that has improved both his movement and his decision-making in tight spaces.
At 24, he is at the age where a first senior international call-up would come at exactly the right moment in his development.
