Albania's coach: Don't count us dead.

Coach Eddy Rey spoke at the press conference before the friendly match against Estonia on Monday at 6:00. The Italian technician stressed that the team cannot be considered dead, as there are two games left, while added that the team should play mentally. I have competing players for tomorrow and have [...]

I have competing players for tomorrow and that matter, when playing the national game doesn't exist friendliness because expectations are high and you need players with incentives. So those less activated have to play, and I'm convinced they'll show up well, no matter how friendly. We have to make a high-intensity presentation, at least these are our expectations.

We started the match properly, sometimes we lose our balances as in the first goal in which we favored our opponent. We need to use our minds more and try to correct these. We must evaluate who we face and recognize the timing of the match. We had to improve that, we reacted well and we were present.

You can't lose focus after the goal, and once you suffer you can't lose your mood in the field. We are not dead because we have two games and we must go to Israel and show our strength. We have Iceland at home, but we have to believe that they can't lose faith after we have a goal. Even a 2-0 outcome can be reversed and this aspect should be improved, because no reaction is unacceptable.

I'm interested in the appearance of Estonia and I'd like to see a good fight, there'll be changes in formation. Tomorrow morning I will make a final assessment, we have young players like Vroon, Chokaj, Mersinaj or Mucholli. But they're players who know the group and have experience. Wessel and Lenyan were in pain of throat, I hope to recover. I could have given him a break, but in view of the situation, I might have to activate him. He's used to sacrificing, and he doesn't mind”, Reja said.
