Yesterday evening, Xherdan Shaqiri, who represents the Swiss team, experienced an exciting reception at the 'Fadil Vokrri' stadium in Pristina from the Kosovar fans.
The Swiss striker was greeted with applause and he did not hesitate to turn to the fans and greet them. Apparently, the Swiss media "Blick" did not like this reception given to Shaqiri by the Kosovo fans. She condemned the gesture that Shaqiri made during the singing of the Kosovo anthem, where he stood with his hand on his heart.
" Before the match, Shaqiri holds his hand over his heart during the national anthem of Kosovo, then gives the national jersey to a boy in a wheelchair and poses for a selfie. You hardly see him on the field. The game in Pristina is a big game, especially for him. It couldn't be more emotional. It is a serious battle against Kosovo, against the country of his birth, the homeland of his parents ", writes the Swiss newspaper.
Shaqiri's response to the comment made by "Blick" was not missing either.
" Everyone knows that I was born here, that I have my roots here. I made this gesture out of respect for Kosovo ", Shaqiri told the newspaper "Blick" after the match.
