The Story in 60 Seconds

Hearts suffered a 2-0 defeat against Trabzonspor in their second UEFA Conference League tie at Papara Park on Thursday. Mo Salah opened the scoring on 30 minutes by converting a penalty after Tomas Magnusson fouled Dju Franculino. Franculino then secured the win for the hosts by scoring Trabzonspor's second goal in the 58th minute following an exchange with Salah.

The Scottish side battled through mounting fitness concerns, having lost Harry Milne to a knee injury in pre-match training before Christian Borchgrevink departed injured during the first half. Wouter Vrancken's side hit the post early through a Malachi Fagan-Walcott header but could not break through, while Trabzonspor's Sidny Cabral received a late red card after collecting two cautions.
