(5 years ago)Kosovo's national was defeated last night 3-1 by poor-shaped Spain, while Macedonia was crushing Germany between Germany.

Kosovo coach Bernard Callandes after the match with Spain declared it would be “crazy” believed Spain could be defeated.
Spain had barely won Georgia's guest [2-1], until it had failed to defeat Greece [1-1] at home.
Several thousand miles away in Germany, our neighboring national Macedonia was crushing Germany. Macedonians won 2-1 but could win 3-0 if the match reference did not forgive a German penalty, and would not deny them a clean penalty.
Furthermore, Macedonia has already secured participation in Euro 2020, on a path towards this competition that fell even from Kosovo, writes Periscopi.
Macedonians had defeated Kosovo in the semi-finals of the Group D of the League of Nations last year, and then defeated Georgia at home.
But why is Macedonia enjoying such great successes until Kosovo has fallen so low?
The answer cannot be in the value of national team players.
According to the magazine specialising in measuring the value of players, Macedonia's players together have the value of 61m and 750 thousand euros.
Kosovo players, however, weigh in the market of 77m and 200 thousand euros.
Macedonia's most expensive player is Eljif Elmas, who plays at Naples and is worth 18m euros. However, the best player and leader of this team is a 37-year-old like Goran Pandev, worth only 400 thousand worth of what Father and Noah and Besar Halimi are worth in Kosovo.
With the victory over Germany as a guest, the North Macedonian national is already real likely to fight for the qualifications even in the World “Catari 2022”, while Kosovo is the last in its group with a scored five goal. Whether Kosovo will remain last in the group is unknown or will succeed in at least crossing Georgia.
Coachs
While Kosovo has a veteran coach in its ranks, such as Bernard Challandes, Northern Macedonia has a 44-year-old like Igor Angelovski who, apart from having no experience, does not even have a sensational football career.
But until Bernard Challandes beside Kosovo He's still working for the Basel team., for Angelovski his job as the coach of the North Macedonian nationals is the only one he does. /Periscope
