The Albanian national team will play against Gibraltar in a friendly, a challenge scheduled to take place on Thursday, September 4, at 6:00 PM.
On the eve of this match, Albania's coach, Silvinjo, has appeared at a press conference, where he will answer questions from journalists. He also spoke about the World Cup qualifier against Latvia in Tirana. Silvinjo said that it will be a difficult and hard-fought match to get the three points and not repeat the situation that occurred in Latvia, where we ended up with a draw.
"As for the match, it's very important. We play Latvia in Tirana. It's a difficult team. A physical and organized opponent.
"We suffered as a team against Latvia. We are preparing, it is a difficult match ahead. I have worked with Brazil for 3-4 years. It happened to Brazil too. It happened to us too. You have to have many options. I am happy with the players I have ," said the national team coach.
Regarding the situation with Adrian Bajrami, Silvinjo said that he had spoken to him on the phone for 10 minutes and expected him to become part of the national team, but that something like that did not happen, and that it was the player's own choice to join Switzerland.
"Regarding Adrian Bajrami. We had sent the waiting list of players since August 17. Since then we have not had any notification from the clubs. After the final list. There was no change. After a day, someone from the Federation informed me that Bajrami had chosen Switzerland. I spoke with him on the phone for 10 minutes. I have nothing to say. This happens with every national team in the world. I wish the player all the best.
When working in a national team, there are also injuries. I am pleased with the new players who have arrived. I see that they have come to enjoy the national team. They are different matches, a friendly and an official one. I do not believe in friendlies. Every match must be well prepared. We must work well. After tomorrow's match we will think about the match against Latvia", said Silvinjo.
