What he failed to do in Tirana, he did in Leskovac. Rey Manaj is our hero, of all Albanians, who now have real reason to dream of what we have never achieved, the World Championship.
Albania managed to defeat Serbia by a minimum of 0:1 in Leskovac, as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, writes Gazeta Express.
It was Rey Manaj who scored an incredible goal in the extra minutes of the first half.
And, he celebrated by making the eagle in Serbia, for which he was unfairly punished with a yellow card.
Immediately after the goal, Serbian fans began to chant outrageously: Kill the Albanian.
Previously, there were calls from them like: “Kosovo is Serbia.” For these, they will certainly receive the deserved fine.
But, what matters is that the Rossoneri achieved a great victory.
After this victory, Albania has 11 points in second place, four more than Serbia, which has one less match played.
