Well-known journalist in England and commentator of many England National Team matches, Sam Matterface, has appeared in an interview for the show Koha Shtesë, which is broadcast on YouTube.
This show is dedicated to the Albanian National Team and this time Sam spoke about the red and black team and what is expected to happen tomorrow.
"I think England will win, I believe England will win. It's no disrespect to Albania, but Tuchel has a new group and will go far in the World Cup. He will bring in a new philosopher and he has a lot of passion for his work. I see it very difficult for Albania. Previously we have played bad football, very slow football and with a ball circulation that was not the best possible. With coach Tuchel we will change the philosophy of the game I think, we will be more attacking to be more productive. England has a problem, they don't often score many goals. They score 1 or 2 goals and then they go back, stand and wait. So I think 2-1 or 3-1 for England, so if we are going to be on a big night, we can win more with Albania," said Matterface, reports SportExpress.
And when we ask him which team will be the second place after England, Sam says: "It's hard to say right now that England will win the group, we expect England to win the group. It's a difficult question because Serbia and Albania have not performed well in the Nations League. If you were to look at the form in general you would choose Serbia, but I think there are not many big differences between the two teams, everything will be very close. This issue will probably be decided in a direct match between Albania and Serbia. I imagine it will be a very emotional match, we played Serbia in the European and won very narrowly against them, 0-1, but in that match we were not at our best, we played very badly", said the Englishman.
Then there was room for a joke. When we asked which player Sam Matterface would give us to easily win against Serbia, the English journalist was very generous and did not hold back at all: "Okay, we'll lend Cole Palmer to you against Serbia," Matterface said with a laugh, showing his sympathy for the Rossoneri.
