Amateurism with Sweden: Four Spectacular Loss Discovered

Kosovo played last night with Captain Amir Candman's absence, leaving our defence exposed in the centre to Sweden's best division, the attack.

Sweden had the highest quality in the offensive phase, with the offensive doubles in shape, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Alexander Isaac, respectively.

On the other hand, things had gotten even worse for Kosovo protection with Ibrahim Dresevich's suspension.

Kosovo's defence consisted of Fidan Aliti and Mergim Vojvoda in the centre, who joined also midfielder Hekuran Kryeziu when the team held the ball and attacked.

Every time the team lost the ball, he gave up his defense position and returned into the middle of the field with the single Besar Halim standing in that position, sometimes losing to the field just trying to recover the huge gaps left by Kryeziu.

In the following picture, you have the players' rankings in the field, and the extraordinary void they left in the middle of the field.

So Kosovo played 3-4-3 formation when it attacked and with 4-2-3-1 formation when it was protected.

Adherjance and Colloll did not produce nearly any danger to the opponent until the team attacked.

Amateurism 1: Kosovo with 0 midfielders in centre of midfield

The problem with the harmless 3-4-3s was that the centre's midfield phase, which should consist of two midfielders, actually consisted of two midfielders of the offensive phase [Halim and Celine].

None of the two were able to interact properly with our wings, Haderjuk and Colol, who in many cases blocked spaces where Rasica and Zenel should maneuver, respectively.

Halimi and Celine did not know how to organise midfield spaces, so Kosovo remained obliged to throw the ball at the arms or at the center of the attack on Muriqi where losing the cannons was a safe thing.

In most of the time, Kosovo did not have a single midfielder in the centre that would detect the game's pace, and at one time the team's spaces, even though it faced two unencumbered midfielders.

Amateurism 2: Chaos with Kryeziu

To make the whole situation even more chaotic, Iron Kryeziu issued his position occasionally even when the team was making an effort to organize the attacks, and instead of 3-4-3 tactics become 2-1-4-3, leaving the left-hand side of the defense centre entirely without coverage.

This was especially exposed when Alexander Isaac in the first part took a very easy ball and left alone towards the Kosovo gate, but which, fortunately, failed to mark the empty gate.

The Kryeziu, known as a good organisational midfielder, proved to be in service as an organisational midfielder [4-2-3-1] right when the attacks organised Sweden while moving into the destroyer's position right when Kosovo organized the attacks.

Seeing the chaos taking place in the Kosovo midfield, Bernard Challandes since his first replacement decided to mock Idriz Voca instead of Besar Halim, but seems to have given him no instructions on what to do.

He simply moved to the center of the field and Kosovo continued to play in the second part as if he were winning a match that he was actually losing convincingly.

Amateurism 3: How sad Wojan

Samir Wolfan's days as the National doorman are over. This was also witnessed in the match against Sweden, in which he made a series of mistakes that resulted in our team being panicked.

Wolfan is not the starring goalkeeper, leaving the national defenders, that is, the defenders [no one of whom is a natural defender] to have a safe space to follow the ball.

Wolfani was an amateur not only in slow reflexes but even in the area's ball fists, which made the situation even more complex, since Vojvoda and Ali were not known as defending air duels.

Amateurism 4: Rasica a second attacker, an offensive side time

Milot Rasica was probably Kosovo's best football player in last night's match.

He made in the first part a good passage to Muriqi, who missed a very good opportunity to score. While in the second part, Augustinsson [Swede left guard] is going as nothing to make one of the most dangerous cases for Kosovo.

However, his position was also improvised.

Annie, though, Rasica played for most of the right side of the attack [by being protected by Augustinsson also from Haderjukaj] he had many moments when he was transferred as a second attacker helping Muriqi.

That left a chain space. Until Hadergj street took his place on the side of the attack until the team organized the attack, no one took his place since Vojvodina was charged with Ibrahimovic's preservation duty. /Periscope
