Also, Reja compliments the fact that although they had a few days at their disposal, the players adapted very well and interpreted the match in the best way, defending well and creating some good scoring chances. So, he expresses regret for the lost cases and underlines that we must improve in this direction.

Abu Dhabi test - "With Saudi Arabia it was a very interesting match, we played against a team that showed good values ??on the field, but we played a very good match, with the right concentration, the boys worked very well during the match, creating 4 or 5 chances for a goal, not to forget a penalty not given by the referee in the case of the interference with Skuka. Taking into consideration the values ??of Saudi Arabia, it is clear that we made a good performance and for that I have to compliment the boys, for the seriousness they showed during all these days".

Emrat e të ardhmes – “Sigurisht unë kam marrë indikacione të rëndësishme nga kjo ndeshje dhe kam mbajtur shënim emrat e disa lojtarëve edhe për të ardhmen. Miqësore të tilla janë të rëndësishme për të fituar eksperiencë dhe për të nxjerrë konkluzione, ndërkohë që do të kemi edhe një miqësore të tretë në nëntor, ku do të testojmë pjesën më të madhe të lojtarëve që kisha në këtë grumbullim”.

Përmirësimi në finalizimi – “Sidoqoftë pres përmirësime të mëtejshme në aspektin e lojës dhe mbi të gjitha për problemin e zakonshëm, kemi vështirësi në pjesën e konkretizimit të manovrave në fazën ofensive. Ndaj Arabisë nga 5 raste të paktën duhet të kishim shënuar 2 ose 3 gola sepse kishim raste të mira kështu që në këtë pjesë të lojës duhet ë përmirësohemi dhe të jemi më të saktë në finalizim. Në vija të përgjithshme kemi bërë një ndeshje të mirë”.

Positive surprise – “I liked that in only a few days of training together the boys were very focused to do their job as well as possible, we had balance in the team and I have to give my compliments to everyone. I didn't think that in a short time the team would work so well on the field, because it's not easy, and the boys showed themselves to be good, especially in the defensive phase, to understand the positioning properly and we have shown that we are a solid team. We did well tactically, especially in defense, we did a good job and from midfield to attack we also created good actions. For this reason, I have to compliment the protagonists".
