In the 21st-minute mark, fellow Ghanaian player, Fatawu Issahaku found the net the level the pegging for the visitors, as the first half of the match ended in a scoring draw.
But Birmingham City proved to be a stronger opponent, with Jay Stansfield netting the match-winner in the 67th-minute mark after being set up by Marvin Ducksch.
Osman has now scored one goal in his first three appearances for Birmingham City, who are chasing for promotion into the English Premier League.
