The head coach of Albania's national team, Silvino, commented on his team's home defeat to Ukraine in the 6th round of the group stage of the Nations League-2024/2025 in Group V1 (1:2).

"Why did we lose to Ukraine? Because we played very poorly for the first 15 minutes of the match. We conceded goals in the 5th and 10th minutes. At this high level, it is unacceptable. We paid a very high price for our own mistakes."

During the course of the game, we changed our formation from 4-2-3-1 to 4-3-3. We noticed that after halftime, Ukraine retreated towards their own goal, which allowed our team to push forward with more attacking players," — noted Silvino.
