Conference League top scorer: Nardin Mulahusejnović draws level with Franko Kovačević

Nardin Mulahusejnović's late winner for Noah against Legia Warszawa enabled the 27-year-old to join Celje's Franko Kovačević – who extended his scoreless streak in this competition to three outings – at the head of the race for the 2025/26 UEFA Conference League top scorer honour.

Mulahusejnović's 84th-minute decider on Matchday 5 ensured the forward extended his scoring streak, having struck once in each round of league phase action so far.

After hitting a hat-trick on opening night, Celje attacker Kovačević struck his 21st and 22nd goals of an extraordinary campaign as his side earned a 2-0 win against Shamrock Rovers in Dublin on Matchday 2.
