Albania's coach, Silvinjo, spoke to the media after the narrow victory over Georgia. The Red and Black coach stated that it was a good match, also because of the changes made.

Silvinho revealed that for this match, he received compliments from the opposing coach, Willy Sagnol.

"It was a very good match. We had a lot of players that are back with the team. Ajeti, Balliu and Tuci have done well. The whole group is difficult. Points can be distributed. It has been a difficult transfer.

Georgia is a very strong team at home. They have a strong midfield and that's why we made some changes. These changes have improved the game. Also fitting Georgia for what it showed.

We had some kind of change, because when we saw that they were with four defenders, we talked to the team. They have lost an important player who scored for us in Tirana. I complimented Georgia's coach, as he complimented me.

It is a strong and very well organized team. We had another opportunity with Bajram. Against the Czech Republic, we had a chance with Asan, but that's how football is. When you have opportunities, it's good to take advantage of the opportunities", declared Silvinjo, who requested that the players stay on the ground.

"We will celebrate the November holidays, but with our feet on the ground. This is a tough group, three very tough opponents. All European teams, no amateurs, European players, higher level players, like ours. But we will celebrate a lot in Albania, obviously, but with my feet on the ground, I work from today, with my feet on the ground. We should celebrate today, but from tomorrow we will work from November. A message to everyone: keep your feet on the ground. Anything can happen here, anyone can beat anyone at home or away.

If we go back to the Czech Republic, they destroyed Poland in the qualifiers, this is a used team, they are used to going 100 per hour at home at the start and I agree that we did not manage the game well. I spoke with the players and in the future they have understood what they should do.

Headache for the center of defense? Yes, I have a headache and that's what I want, having a headache makes me crazy. Tuci also had a nice match.

They deserved to win this match, we did a good job, the whole federation, a staff with a lot of work behind it. We all deserved to score 6 points and go ahead. We are still alive, I told the boys that this is a victory that they should enjoy a lot", Silvinjo said.
