Albania performs a miracle in Georgia, breaks the taboo and keeps alive the dream of qualifying for League A. The Reds have defeated Georgia for the first time in history, triumphing with the minimum score of 0-1 in "Mikheil Meskhi".
The hero of the Rossoneri in Tbilisi was Kristjan Asllani with the goal scored in the 48th minute of the match. Bajrami from the left took the defenders with him, passed for Tuci in the center and the striker then passed for Asllan. The midfielder did not hesitate to shoot towards the goal and found the net, giving Albania the advantage.
The advantage of the Reds and Blacks could have been deeper, as Nedim Bajrami found himself in a very favorable position in the 57th minute.
Asani passed for Bajram in the center, the midfielder's shot went wide next to the triangle of the Georgian goal.
A few minutes later, newly introduced Mirlind Daku, after replacing Indrit Tuci, had another good scoring opportunity.
Asllan's penalty kick, the ball sent to the center of the area found Dak, who headed in, but without turning the ball into the goal.
Just two minutes later, Tomas Strakosha denied the home team a goal. Mikautadze found himself empty in the center of the area and shot as soon as he saw the goal, Strakosha stopped his first shot and then Ismajli the second.
The first half of the match ended with the nets intact.
The locals had the best opportunity to take the lead in the 5th minute. Dangerous action by the Georgians from the right, the cross in the center found Zivzivadze, who luckily did not manage to shoot at the red and black goal. Then Albania tried to press by creating some dangerous chances, but could not finish them.
In the 11th minute there were thrills in our goal, as Davitashvili appeared in front of the goal and shot, finding the decisive deflection of Strakosha, who sent the ball into the corner.
4 minutes later, Albania had the best chance to break the deadlock. Asani started Tuci deep, with the latter shooting, but found the answer of the local goalkeeper.
The following minutes spoke almost entirely for Georgia, creating successive chances, but without being able to punish Strakosha's goal.
With this victory, Albania climbs to first place with 6 points, the same as Georgia and the Czech Republic, but the latter have one less game to play, that against Ukraine, which will be played at 20:45.
Albania will play the next match in "Air Albania" in front of the Czech Republic on November 16, where they will definitely look for the 3 points to keep their hopes alive for the qualification to the A League.
