The Albanian Football Federation (FSHF) marked the 10th anniversary of the Berlin Process with a unique football tournament involving embassies. Held at the “House of Football” under the slogan “Friendship Through Football – Western Balkans Edition,” the event featured six teams: Diplomatic League, WBF + RYCO, Albania’s Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, the German Embassy in Albania, the German Embassy in Kosovo, and FSHF Administration.

FSHF President Armand Duka and German Ambassadors Karl Bergner and Joern Rohde praised the initiative for promoting friendship and collaboration through sports.

Duka highlighted football’s role in fostering unity, stating, “Football needs no translation; it speaks for itself as the most beautiful game in the world.” He also thanked Germany for its warm hospitality during Euro 2024 and reaffirmed FSHF’s commitment to partnerships that benefit education and community development.

German Ambassador Karl Bergner lauded Albania’s fans and national team for leaving a positive impression during Euro 2024 and emphasized the importance of next year’s UEFA U-17 European Championship, to be hosted by Albania.

The tournament concluded with the German Embassy in Albania defeating the Diplomatic League in the final match.
