The head coach of Albania's national team, Silvino, commented on the events of the opening round match of the 2024/2025 Nations League in Group B1, where his team defeated Ukraine with a score of 2:1 in Paris.

"A very important victory that was hard to achieve. To be able to turn the course of the match — there wasn't much hope for it, especially at this level. Ukraine is a strong opponent with technically skilled players. However, we put up a good fight, perhaps failing only in the beginning of the second half."

As for future performances in this Nations League, I believe that this victory was key, although both Georgia and Czech Republic are also strong teams," — Silvino stated.
