“Against Serbia, we only missed the goal” / Asllani: Against Latvia, only three points matter

Albania will face Latvia in Riga in the fourth qualifying match for the 2026 World Cup.

Albanian national team midfielder Kristjan Asllani expressed that the team comes from a very good match against Serbia and that in Riga they will play only for victory.

“We need to recharge our batteries because we come from a very good match where the only thing missing was the goal.

Here, we come only for the three points, to realize our dream and objective.

Since the coach arrived, I believe I have played all the matches.

We have to think about the team because tomorrow we have a very tough match.

They have an Italian coach, and I know how Italian coaches work.

Right now, I’m not thinking about Kristjan Asllani, I’m only thinking about the team, and we have come here just to win this match.

I remember Zelenkovs very well because we played together for two years at Empoli. We got along very well. Tomorrow, we will see each other again after 3-4 years.

I think we will swap shirts; I will be the one to ask for it. I hope we win this match,” said Asllani.
