Wiktor Bogacz gave the home side the lead after just 14 minutes played after being teed up by Kyle Duncan.
Charlotte drew level moments later.
13 minutes later, the Ghanaian forward got onto the score sheet.
Sofo connected with a brilliant cross sent into the box by Wikelman Carmona to restore his side's lead.
