Mario Mitaj is honored with the "Red and Black Heart" trophy by Albanian fans

Qualifying for the first time in the play-off phase of the 2026 World Cup was the crowning achievement of a historic year for Albanian football. The national team managed to secure second place in Group K, where they were drawn with England, Serbia, Latvia and Andorra.

Just like last year at the gala evening, this year one of the National Team players was honored with the “Red and Black Heart” trophy. This award was voted for by all members of the “National Team Fans” club.

Fans had the opportunity to vote through an e-mail sent by the Albanian Football Association and after the votes were counted, the winner was declared red and black defender, Mario Mitaj.

This trophy reflects the fans' appreciation for his exceptional performances and dedication to the red and black jersey. The trophy was presented to him by Lorik Cana, the legendary former captain of the National Team.

In a short speech, the defender expressed his happiness and pride at being recognized by the fans with this trophy.
