find the second occurrence of a char in a string php

Question

Imagine i have this string :

$info="portugal,alemanha,belgica,porto 1-0 alemanha, belgica 2-0";

I want to know the position of the 2nd char "-", so i want the result 2-0 and not the result 1-0.

I'm using this function, but it's always returning the first position,

$pos = strpos($info, '-');

Any idea? Thanks

Simplest solution for this specific case is to use the offset parameter:

$pos = strpos($info, '-', strpos($info, '-') + 1);

You might want to look into using regular expressions, though.
