Albania plays a very important match on Monday, as it is against Spain.

On the eve of this match, the coach of the Rossoneri, Silvinjo, spoke to the media. Albania's coach highly appreciated the opponent, while saying that there are ambitious players.

"It is exciting. Spain welcomed me and my family. I played there, I know people. For me to play against Spain is fantastic. It will be a day I will not forget. On the other hand, I am happy to be the manager of the Albanian team. Opportunity very big for us, we will go out tomorrow to play with one of the biggest teams in the world.

You know better than I that Spain has its DNA to hold the ball. This Spanish team has something else, dangerous players in the side. It has more quality. Obviously I've watched them in the last few months, they're very good defensively, they allow very little space. They are very well organized. Spain might be the best team in the group. So they are definitely a good team. We have a tough game tomorrow, but we also have ambitious and excited players for tomorrow.

I went with Zabaleta, 1 day after our match, we know all the opponents of our group. A team that impresses you. De la Fuente has done a wonderful job. My players are courageous, they will go out on the field and give everything they can. We have a chance, anything can happen. We will go to play.

It is an advantage to score first, but this is the second European. We have young players who have improved and are showing what they can do. It's also about experience.

Many people thought that we would concede a lot of goals and the last game would not matter. We are very happy to be in the "Group of Death" and we will go into this match to win something.

I'm young. It is an important match and one that I will not forget. To play against Spain, I am half Spanish and Brazilian. It is an important match.

We have been working with the national team for months. We have been in Tirana and we have seen great dedication and trust from the people who work for this team. There are 3 million Albanians in Albania and 10 million in the world. The current generations are enjoying the matches of the national team in the European. We are doing very good work. We will play the whole 90 minutes. If we pass the group, and better. It will be a pleasure to play among the top 16 teams. We will do the best performance. It's fantastic", said Silvinjo.
