Orges Shehi appeared at the usual press conference before the match of Tirana against Teuta, valid for the 32nd week of Superiore. The blue and white coach has analyzed the team before the challenge with Djemt e Det.

Also, Shehi has also addressed the absence of Bekaj, saying that Iljoni is the captain of the team and will be a second coach on the playing field. In the end, he also talked about the derby, where according to him the derby is the derby and it will be very hard fought.

"The situation is what it was. Absences are known, those that have been, because they are not momentary. We doubt Abazaj, because we know that he is not 100% himself. Today is the last training and we will see if he will be on the field or not. Then Bekaj is known to have completed the number of cards and it will not be tomorrow.

Bekaj? The activation of Bekaj throughout the championship has nothing to do with the fact that we do not have a good alternative. We are very confident that Bekaj's absence will not be felt, because the experience and quality that Iljoni has on his shoulder will make it easy for us. In addition to being the team captain, he will be like a second coach on the field.

Everyone has difficulties. It is a very competitive championship as all the teams are within the targets. Each team has its own objective. And Teuta always wants to climb higher because it is below its own expectations. This is not the first time. We know it will be a hard-fought match between two teams that each will win to be within their own goals.

Now it is true that we have had a load of matches and we will have this load these four days as well. I want the team to freshen up, to recover and of course to introduce some players who come after the suspension in some position.

I think that this expression has since the match with Rrogozhina, which we won with Egnatia, paves the way for the title. After Egnatia won in Shkodër, he takes a safe step. He won with Kastrioti, now comes the match against Teuta... I think that all the matches are important, because for how long we have a very strong and competitive championship and when every opponent produces results that are perhaps not expected. So it is a difficult match in the framework of what are left and five finals and this is one of them.

I think the Cup has two pictures. The cup is played with two matches. The championship is played with one meeting even when there is a special specificity, then the way of playing and the strategy you choose is a little different. However, I think we should focus on that and not think about the game we have in four days. In the Cup, we got a good result in the first match and all the focus is on tomorrow's match, as it is not a two-legged game, but 90 minutes and maybe something more. 90 minutes that are very important and that require a concentration, an assessment, because the game is gone and there is no more like in the Cup that you have time to recover in the second game.

Derby? There are 10-11 days until the derby. With 17 then, after the Cup match with Teuta we will focus on the derby. I don't think that the fans should be burdened with great emotions to close the accounts of the championship. The derby is the derby which means it is unpredictable. But we have to get rid of these emotions in order not to be too burdened", said Shehi.
