Daniel Candeias produced a remarkable performance in the Turkish Super Lig on Saturday afternoon, scoring a first-half hat-trick and laying on two assists as Genclerbirligi ran out 6-0 winners at Antalyaspor.

The former Nacional, Metz and Rangers forward had yet to score for his new club since his summer arrival, but Candeias broke his duck after just one minute of this weekend’s game and went on to fashion one of the most memorable afternoons of his career.

Granada remain in the Champions League places in La Liga after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Osasuna on Friday evening moved the newly-promoted club up to 3^rd place in the table.

Portuguese pair Rui Silva and Domingos Duarte were once again crucial to the win, with Duarte scoring the winner as well as producing some vital defending, while goalkeeper Silva was on-hand to make a match-winning save.

Portuguese forward Gonçalo Paciência scored his first brace in German football with two first-half goals as Eintracht Frankfurt recorded an impressive 3-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen on Friday night.

Paciência took his tally in the Bundesliga this season to five goals, which is already two more than he managed in the whole of last season as injuries blighted his first year in Germany. With the three points, Frankfurt leapfrog Leverkusen into 7^th place in the standings and remain unbeaten in four matches following a tough start to the season.

Portugal international João Mário scored his first goal for Lokomotiv Moscow on Friday evening as the Russians warmed up for their midweek trip to Juventus with a 2-0 win over Akhmat Grozny.

Lokomotiv now lead the Premier League by three points after the opening game of matchday 13 in Russia, while the goal for Mário on his eighth appearance for the club following a summer move from Inter should give the former Sporting man a huge confidence boost.
