Cana: Kosovo does not belong in League C, match with Romania should not be abandoned

Former Albanian National captain Lorik Cana has stressed that Kosovo players' decision to abandon the match to Romania in the extra minutes was not the right one.

Former red and black midfielder has said he has liked the team's joint force in that match, as well as the respect of Captain Amir Cantaman's decision, but has questioned whether such a decision to abandon the match would be taken as if Kosovo were winning in those moments.

I've been asked a lot about this. I don't believe that something has been done willingly, with bad intentions or in some bad way. When they ask me that question, I ask them another very simple question. If we were 1-0 winning that game, would we have left? Take the answer yourself, if we had been making 1-0 at the minute ♫93, would we have quit the game? Most people tell me: No, we wouldn't. We have an answer.

He added that the view on the field where the whole team supported Captain Amir Candman's decision made him feel extremely good.

Cana also emphasises with full conviction that Kosovo does not belong in the C League, but at least a higher rank, in League B.

He has not even failed to comment on the poor performance of the Albanian National in this edition of the League of Nations, where the Reds ended up in the group with only seven points.

In the match that took place in Bucharest, under the League of Nations, Kosovo players left the field in the 92nd minute following racist calls from Romanian fans.

Days ago, the European football house ÉFA made a decision that the cross-country match between Kosovo and Romania meets Romanians with an official score of 3-0.

Kosovo will face Iceland in two matches to be held in March of next year.
