Salah scores, assists in Trabzonspor 2-0 win over Hearts

Trabzonspor secured a 2-0 victory over Hearts in the Conference League, thanks to Mohamed Salah's penalty and assist. The Liverpool star opened the scoring in the first half, then set up Franculino Dju for a second goal in the second half. Hearts, already dealing with injuries to several key players, suffered another setback when Harry Milne was ruled out due to an injury sustained in training.

Other players, including Rogers Mato and Christian Borchgrevink, were also forced off due to injuries. Despite a poor start with Malachi Fagan-Walcott heading against the post, Trabzonspor gained control of the game after two penalty appeals were turned down. Salah eventually earned the penalty and converted it, giving Trabzonspor the lead.

Franculino doubled the advantage shortly before halftime with a well-executed goal. Hearts' hopes of a comeback were dashed, and they will continue to search for their first win in the competition.
