Valentine's Day in Turkey "speaks" Albanian. Ernest Muçi and Rey Manaj confirm once again their "love" for the goal, as they score goals with their Trabzonspor and Sivasspor squads.

There is no doubt that Albanian striker Ernest Muçi is in the best form of his career. After just 6 minutes in the super challenge between Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce, the 24-year-old found the goal, beating Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson, after a finishing full of “elegance”. Muçi also hit the crossbar later from the penalty spot, however in the end his team lost 2-3 to Fenerbahce.

However, Muç's goal set two new records. The first is the Albanian striker's highest number of goals in a season, 13, surpassing his performance in the 2019-2020 season in Tirana, with 12. The second is the fastest goal scored by a Trabzonspor team at home in the 2025-2026 season.

Rey Manaj scored his first goals of the season after his return to Sivaspor. The red and black striker proved irresistible as he managed to score a brace, which was however not enough to secure victory for his team, with Sivaspor drawing 3-3 against Vanspor.

The goals came within four minutes in the Turkish First League. The first came in the 28th minute, after a perfect pass from the left, Manaj calmly pushed the ball into the net. Meanwhile, the second goal came as a result of a pearl from the free kick, as Manaj pulled out of his repertoire a powerful and spectacular shot that stopped in the back of the net.

Another very good performance by the red and black duo, very positive news for coach Sylvinho, with just over a month to go until the decisive match against Poland.
