My Take
Liviu Antal's career fascinates me as a study in resilience. Winning the 2013-14 Liga I golden boot with fifteen goals for a Vaslui side that was relegated for financial reasons is a heartbreakingly lonely kind of brilliance. What impresses me more is what came next: brief stops in Turkey and Israel, then reclaiming top scorer honours with Žalgiris in Lithuania. A striker who keeps finding the net across leagues and cultures is the real article, and I love the romance of the wandering goalscorer. Antal proves that the instinct for goal is a universal language no border can mute.
