“was working local in Greece, the Albanian assailant is living his dream”

Major Greek media like those of “Sport Fm” and “Gazzetta.gr” give their applause to Albanian player Uzun. Beratas scored the first goal in the match between Ferenvaros and Juvenus, even though it was the Italians who won the end of 1-2. Greek media stress that the Albanian player is living his dream.

As a child, he grew up on the island of Zakintho, and his parents worked every hour to obtain the necessities. Even though the immigrant was soon adopted and became part of the local team on the island of Zakinthos, where they lived. When Uzun became 18 years old, he went to work on Zakinthos' premises to support his family financially but also himself.

But love of football and passion keeps him going, and today he has achieved what every child dreams of. “An idol. One of the heroes we need in these difficult times to remind us that everything is accessible” writes Greek media.
