Kosovo has been in excellent shape recently, taking 7 points in the last three games -- victory against Sweden in Pristina, equaling Slovenia and another success against Scandinavians in the return match.
These results have revived hopes of qualifications, while enthusiasm is sensitive to both fans and sports opinion.
In a proposal for Euronews Albania, Duka said Kosovo has a strong group of players, and recent winners are no surprise to it:
Kosovo has very good composition. There are very quality footballers, and it's no surprise that you win these two matches,” he said.
Furthermore, the head of the FSHF stressed that Kosovo has fully deserved success in the field and sees its participation in the World Cup as natural:
I said at the beginning, it's not like there are many differences. I deserve it, I super-deserve it in the first fight in Pristina, I deserve last night and I deserve it to be part of the country's” World Championship.
In the end, Duka commented on the possibility that both Albania and Kosovo can go to play-off, naming it an extraordinary scenario.
“Two nationals on play-off? Fantastic. If we can support two, but even if we have one, we'll still be happy,” he's done. /Periscope
