Duka reacts after elimination: The loss hurts, but this is the strongest

The President of the Albanian Football Federation, Armand Duka, has reacted after the 2-1 loss to Poland, which marked the end of Albania's journey towards the 2026 World Cup.

Through an emotional message on social media, the head of Albanian football addressed the players and fans, emphasizing that pride outweighs the disappointment of the result.

The Duke has described this group of players as the most qualitative team in the history of our football, underlining that the character shown on the field is a promise for the future.

"Tonight is not a night to lower your head. On the contrary. It is a night to stand tall and be proud of this team, of these guys who in every minute of the game show spirit, character and that thing that cannot be taught. Albanian blood.

Yes, this loss hurts. It hurts because it interrupts a dream that we have been building for years and that today seemed closer than ever. But what these boys showed on the field is more than a result. It is a promise. It is proof that this is, without a doubt, the strongest and most beautiful team we have ever had.

Thank you for making us believe. Thank you for making us dream.

"Today, boys, there is no loss that diminishes the pride I feel for you," writes the Duke.
