BBC: Albania won many admirers with bold performances at Euro 2024

The well-known English medium, “BBC”, has dedicated an article to the Albanian National Team, regarding the appearance in Euro 2024.Albania was eliminated last night from the Euro 2024 European Championship, after the minimal defeat by Spain with the numbers 1:0, reports KosovaPress.

“BBC” wrote that with its appearance in Euro 2024, Albania has already won many admirers.

“Albania has never played in a World Championship and this was the second time it appeared in the European Championship, eight years after failing to get out of the group stage.

Albania’s task was always going to look extremely difficult, having been drawn in a group with Spain, reigning champions Italy and 2018 World Cup finalists Croatia.

But they won many admirers with bold performances.

They scored after just 23 seconds to take the lead over Italy with the fastest goal in European history. They eventually lost 2:1 to the Azzurri, but in their second game against Croatia they scored a 2:2 equalizer in the fifth minute of extra time.

Albania fought hard against Spain with substitute Broja taking a lot of risks and coming close to a goal that would have seen them finish third in the group and keep alive their slim hopes of qualification.
