The coach of the Albanian National Team, Silvinjo, appeared today in front of the media for the press conference before the match against Moldova, showing his ideas for the team in this next challenge for the "EURO 2024" qualifiers. In his speech before the journalists, the Brazilian technician stated:
" The gathering has been long. This type of gathering has had its own difficulties, as the players have not been from the start. We prepare for 7-8 days with the full group and with full intensity. It is our job to manage the players properly. Now we know them a little better and that will help us. I am satisfied with the commitment of the footballers. It is our job now to manage the match properly .
The pressure? We are used to the pressure. We are not very impressed. We have 7 finals ahead of us. Tomorrow we will play the first final. We are all very charged. We play at home. We expect to have a full stadium. The presence of fans in the stadium will be of great help. At the last moment I will decide on the formation. It is important for me that the team has balance. We have a group that will play with all their heart in this match.
The key to success? The level of concentration and focus is high at this moment. For me there are no small teams. I emphasize again that we have 7 finals ahead and the first one is tomorrow. I am confident that my team will play a strong game. I think that Albania is ready to get the most out of this challenge.
The lineup? I am confident about the players I will field. Today's training doesn't matter in this regard.
Returning injured players? Sadiku is a symbolic player of the Albanian national team. He is very capable in front of goal. He knows very well what he can give to the Rossoneri. It really worries the national team. Since I made the list, I have talked to him. If I need it for 20 or 30 minutes, I am convinced that he can give us a hand in this challenge.
The players who were missing against Poland have to get used to our way of playing. They should fix the concepts we have about how we should play. But those who were with Poland have it simpler. Of course this time we had some new players. Fortunately, Gjimshiti and Ismajli return. I also really like Muçi, for the way he interprets football.
Silvinho's Albania? Tomorrow you will see the red and black team, a team that plays very hard on the field of play. A team that plays at 100 km/h. I am very passionate about this job. I am convinced that they will give their hearts on the pitch.
Crucial challenge for qualification? All matches are important. All challenges are like a final. There is no time to waste in tournaments like this. The players are clear and know very well the main objective. The most important at the moment is the challenge with Moldova.
Lojtarët dhe portieri i 11-shes? Ka qenë e vështirë për të menaxhuar këtë lloj grumbullimi. Portierët janë në nivel të barabartë. Nesër do të mësojmë kë do të vendosim titullar. Një pjesë e kanë mbyllur shpejt me skuadrat e tyre, të tjerë jo. Por, është puna jonë t’i menaxhojmë situatat si duhet. Jam i bindur që ekipi është gati. Nesër do të zbresim në fushë për të bërë një ndeshje shumë të bukur. Moldavia që kam parë unë, është ekip me lojtarë të rinj. E interpreton futbollin në mënyrë të mirë. Ka lojtarë shumë të talentuar. Sigurisht që është një ndeshje shumë e vështirë për ne. Kemi shansin të zbresim në fushë dhe të arrijmë qëllimin tonë.
The field of "Air Albania"? Tomorrow we will go down to the stadium field in front of 20 thousand fans. We saw the field 2 days ago. The field is not in bad shape. It is important for me not to have excuses. I have spoken with the players and we will do our best," he said.
The Albania-Moldova match will take place tomorrow at 20:45 at the "Air Albania" stadium.
