2024-06-22 17:23:00, Sport CNA

The Albanian national team will play against Spain on Monday evening in the third match of group B, in the finals of the European Championship "Germany 2024".

Two days before the third final of the Rossoneri, which will be played at the Dusseldorf stadium at 21:00, midfielder Nedim Bajrami appeared before the media at the usual conference.

Bajrami said that regardless of the opponent's level, the red and blacks will enter the field only for 3 points.

The match against Spain? - We all know that Spain is the favorite to win the European Championship. We have to prepare the game very well and we must all be ready. Let's all do our best, it doesn't matter who plays and who doesn't. The opportunities we will have in the match we must do our best and score.

The first two games of the European? - With Italy, we didn't even expect that we would start so well, but they scored two goals afterwards. We also had a chance with Manaj to equalize. We played a very nice match with Croatia, we all fought until the end and showed that we are there. With Spain, we know that it is a very strong team. Regardless of who plays the first or second team. That doesn't matter as all their players have quality. We have to focus only on the game and our qualities. We have to give our best. We haven't analyzed it yet, but Jamal, Morata and Ruiz are the strongest. Rodri will not play because of yellow cards.

What awaits us on Monday against Spain? - Spain is the favorite to win the European Championship. With Spain we have to give our best, not only for victory but to take advantage of every opportunity because we are playing with a big competition, and we have to be more cynical about the goal.

Change of position in the match with Croatia? – The first match with Italy I played as a midfielder, with Croatia I played on the wing. Silvinho asked me if I could play and I said yes because for me it doesn't matter where I play but I give my best for the team, I'm always ready.

Are you prepared for a gift from Spain? - There are no gifts in football, we have to focus on our game, we have to give our best and fight for every ball, use every opportunity.

Limited shots in Europe? - In the first half with Croatia, I had an opportunity to score a goal, I will do the same with Spain. Not only me but also Asani and Asllani because they also have strong shots. Spain will put us under pressure, so let's use the shots from the 16-meter area to shoot at the goal.

What position will you play on Monday? - I am ready to play in any position, midfield or wing. I will give my best wherever the coach puts me. Spain will press but we will have our chances on the counter attack. We need to be more specific. We also had cases with Italy and Croatia. With Spain we have to score goals.

The historic goal with Italy? - I would have rather scored the last goal with Italy so that we won 1-0. I did not know that I entered the history of the European, I am very happy.

Spain rotation? - We are playing a European with very strong teams. There is no first, second or third team for me. Everyone has quality, but we must prepare as well as possible. Let's get into the match to fight for every point and every ball.

What should we change in the match against Spain? - I believe that we played two good matches in the defensive phase. But let's be more specific in attack, as we have had opportunities. We must also look for the second and third goals, not just 1-0.

Fan support for Spain? - Spain will put a lot of pressure on us, so we have to defend like against Italy and Croatia. We have qualities in the counterattack. I hope that all the red and black fans will support us, in the stadium and outside.

Pressure in Europe? - We don't have pressure anymore, it's the third game. We are not Spain or France, which we have many cases. Let's score the chances we have. It is a great achievement to score two goals against Croatia and a goal against Italy.

The match that remains in your mind with Albania? - I believe that we all know the match with Serbia, but I don't want to get into it. The best match was against the Czech Republic there. Not because I scored, but all those fans, it was very nice. Even the match with Portugal when Balaj scored. Albania has shown that it can win even with big teams.
