Playing for the final / Tetovo awaits the overthrow, Gega: Economy has been

Partizani and Egnatia will face off in the capital, for the return match in the semi-finals of the Albanian Cup.

The Reds come somewhat favored in this match, due to the minimal victory achieved in the first match.

On the eve of this challenge, Partizan coach Skënder Gega highly praised the match, saying that it is a good opportunity for Europe. According to him, the "bulls" see every match as a final.

"This result means that we are in the race. We have achieved a 1-0 result, but what is one week is not the next. Egnatia is a good team, a team with qualities, we are aware of that. We come after a match with a bad result and anyway you can't work with enthusiasm. I have tried these 2-3 days, despite the tight time, to correct, analyze and improve the mistakes we have made.

I think that for a club like Partizan every match should be a cup final. The only way is to take the matches one by one, but now it's the end and there is no chance or space. I believe that this is a very important match.

"That's exactly what we're playing for. We're playing for Europe, for the image of the club, for the interests of everything together. It's a competition to be evaluated, in football everything today has become a market economy, each club without its own goals. Tomorrow we'll give our maximum, this is very important. We're ready for any kind of situation."

The hero of the first match, Albers Keko, was in the same line, who declared that winning the Cup is Partizan's objective.

"It's another game. We hope we can do it, we're playing on our home field. We're a good team and we hope to continue to do well like we did in the last two games."

"Personality is not important to me. For me, what is important is that the team wins and we qualify for the final. Normally it is a difficult match and it should be appreciated to the maximum. The cup is Partizan's objective and I hope we can achieve it."

On the other hand, Egnatia coach Edlir Tetova appeared confident of an upset in the capital, despite the loss in the first match.

"Of course it's a match where the team did well in the game, in the chances, but not in the result. We will try to be more rational in the second match. We have to be careful because there is no return match, so everything ends."

I have a group of players who know what difficulty and the disadvantageous result are. I have high hopes for the group I have.

The good news is the return of Xhemajli and Sota. It's not like we've decided anything yet because there are two very close days, with tight matches. Today we'll see everything.

"We are 99.9% of the way to the championship conclusion, we are in first place. The psychological state of the players is optimal, so we are only thinking about the semi-final match tomorrow."

The Partizani-Egnatia match will be played this Wednesday, starting at 19:00.
