Berat Gjimshiti, not only an important footballer for Albania, but also a character to be followed as an example.
The moment came, the coach said that if there is one player who deserves it, it is you...
I believe we all deserved it. I don't put myself before the team. I hope I never become like that. Thanks go to the whole team, staff, AFL, fans. We have the best in the world, many people came to Moldova to support us. Victory of all Albania.
Will we do better than in 2016?
We have the qualities and opportunities. Maybe today was not the best game, but the pressure was very high. We will do very well in Germany, but we have time to think. Let's celebrate a little, play the next game and take the first decision, because we deserve it.
The possibility is always there, if you have something to dream, it is always possible in life. That's my mentality. We must have faith, health. Of course, you also need a little luck. As a group and individuals we are very good.
Do you have a preference in the lottery?
I haven't thought about it at all. The most important thing was the qualification, there is still time to think about the draw.

Berisha: The journey has just begun, let's honor the red and black jersey in Germany
Etrit Berisha does not hide his emotions that for the second time he will have the opportunity to defend the red and black goal in a European Championship, while in the middle of the party, he warns of surprises in Germany as well.
How do you feel about playing another European?
Truly a fantastic feeling. We have had a very long and arduous journey, but it has all been worth it. I congratulate all the Chunas and all the Albanians, as we have done something fantastic.
Did you think of another European?
Absolutely yes. We always did our best and this time we succeeded. The journey has just begun and now we will think about the European Championship in Germany.
Which European was the most difficult to reach?
Of course, the first one was more difficult, as we had a very strong group and it was much more difficult to score a goal. Now we have had very quality players individually and the team took heart, so we made it simpler. We secured a match before the end and it is more beautiful.
What is the secret?
Surely the secret is the group. We have a very good group in terms of collective and individual, but also a coach who knows how to manage the group very well. We managed every situation well and succeeded.
