Redon Xhixha shines in the Champions League. The former Tirana striker once again proves that he is among the best goal scorers who have been raised in the Albanian Superliga.
The 25-year-old forward, after scoring against Lincoln Red in one of the first qualifying round matches, has confirmed his spectacular form in the second round.
In the match that Qarabag played tonight away against the Polish champions Rakow, Xhixha became the hero for the Azerbaijani team by scoring two goals.
