If Hearts do end up taking on Viktoria Plzen for a spot in the revamped Europa League group stage, then they'll be facing a "generational talent" in Jiri Maxim Panos.
That's according to Plzen boss Miroslav Koubek, who pitched the 16-year-old into their third qualifying round first leg clash with Kryvbas KR.
And he was rewarded big time as Panos kickstarted the second half turnaround in Slovakia that means Plzen will take a lead back to the Czech Republic for next week's second leg, which Hearts will be watching closely.
The teenage talent drew the visitors level just three minutes after the break before Daniel Vasulin struck a second with just over 20 minutes to go.
