Kosova National Team [General topic]

With memories of the golden years (80's) of the albanian football still fresh on her mind, Albania is now attempting to recreate its strong football legacy. As young players start making their names abroad, the future is looking bright for Albanian football!

Packed stadium 20k in attendance. Fans bought tickets to see Haaland tear it up.

For some coaches, there is no such thing as friendlies. Not to worry, big man will have plenty of time to rest this summer.

Kosovo (~40%) is favoured to beat Romania (~31%) at Fadil Vokrri Stadium in Pristina.

Vedat Muriqi (+187) leads the probable scorers list for this match. Big man has scored 26 goals for Kosovo and will be looking to add to that total.

Will be interesting to see the long awaited debut of Elvis Rexhbecaj.

Kosovo needs to take 3 points here after the injustice last June thanks to Video Adjusting Results system.

Amateurish? They invited him and he rejected call because wants to play for Sweden. Kosova needs central midfielders but i don't think they should allow players from Swedish league to play games so it was correct move. I just hope Kosova will never give him another opportunity, let him wait for Sweden.

Very excited to see Asllani debuting for Kosova tonight, Rexhbecaj is important addition because lack of players on that position but Asllani potential is tremendous.

Yes, the way they handle situations like this is amateurish. No reason to trash talk their decision in the media.

Arber Zeneli proved that playing for Kosovo is a sacrifice these players make, had he stayed with Sweden hd might've never experienced that horrible injury which stopped his career before it even began at the highest level.

Elvis Rexhbecaj is starting in his debut..

Rashica and Zhegrova on the flanks.

Muriqi and Asllani up top.

Very attacking lineup in Pristina!

Let’s go Kosovo!

What I like about Kosovo is that they always play the most talented players possible. No wild callups or experiments because they don't "fit the system" or other excuses. They just play their best players and let them figure it out. That's Yugoslav sports culture.
