The Albanian national team will face Serbia tomorrow. The match will be played for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, while Silvinjo and Elseid Hysaj are holding the usual press conference.
Can this be called the most important match for you? All matches are important. Today yes, absolutely. A month ago it was against Latvia, if we didn't win it wouldn't make sense. If we win, it will be with Andorra next, the most important. It's emblematic and beautiful. I believe it will be beautiful.
Have you worked on the attack? As I said, it's a beautiful and different match. We had continuous training in Tirana, using videos, going to the field and making corrections. Yesterday we had a high-level training. Everyone is ready and has responded to the training. Tomorrow we have to choose the players who will go out on the field. I don't care about the lack of a goal, it's the last point of football. Of course, it's built to go to the goal. I trust all the players and everyone can respond to what we have prepared during training.
Does their coach know how we line up? As for the match, we also know how they line up. They play with 3 center backs, 2 midfielders, a left winger and two forwards. I don't have any doubts, but we have another training session, and tomorrow morning the team is ready. Surprise? I can't say, because they know a lot anyway (laughs).
Chances of victory? Football is unpredictable, I repeat this. For this reason we cannot place bets. I am a coach, I have been a player for 15-16 years, I say modestly at the highest levels. I have played a World Cup as an assistant and a European Championship with Albania. I have never seen a match won without starting. This is a strong team with important individual value in important championships. We have played at home and have grown a lot after a European Championship where we gained experience. Anything can happen in 90 minutes, we know that and they do, in my opinion there are no percentages, but only to come out with intensity and play with heart and soul. Then we will see, I have full confidence in our team.
Will you give the last chance to those who have not been as you expected? The most important match at the moment is this. I don't care what moment the player is going through, if he is ready to give for the National Team, he can play. We have made a journey to reach this match, if we were to come with 3 points we would not talk about such importance. And if you win this and get 0 points, you are eliminated. It is not that we have 50 players from which we can choose continuously. We have players who have changed in 3 years. The team has changed, especially in the European Championship there were changes. I always believe in all my players. I have to make my choices depending not on the player's moment, but on what he gives on the field.
