(a year ago)On the eve of the delicate and very important confrontation between Albania and Serbia, Redist Elseid Hysa has spoken of the atmosphere on the team and the approach the team must have at a game of particular weight, not only sports but emotional, writes the Eye.net, broadcasts Periscopi with its long-term experience in the national and [...]
With his long-term experience in the national and Serie A, Hysa highlights the importance of self - control and quietness in the field, emphasising motivation to win a direct opponent without being influenced by tensions outside football. He says great pressure is inevitable, but it must translate into maximum courage and concentration to satisfy fans and ensure a victory that would be experienced as a moment of national pride.
How will we experience this match, given the relationship between the two countries and what happened in 2014?
It's a very important fight in front of a direct opponent. We should not be affected by football players, we should be focused on the field to be calm.
Are you among the experienced players, will you have a key role psychologically?
All football players know it's important inside and outside football, I've been talking to some players about the games we've been playing, I've told them to be as calm as possible and to be as quiet on the field as possible.
Special match-ups, pressure better...
It's a lot of pressure, but this pressure will be very valuable for us to get down into the field courageously. Special fight, but we must quietly enter the field to get three points.
We need to give up our nationalist and political colors.
It is not a beautiful image of the match we played in Serbia. It's a game we play for our nation, if we win it it's gonna be great pride, but we have to be quiet, please fans and win.
How did you find the team and feel on the physical or tactical side, how do you feel personally?
I'm fine, I'm back from damage. All the guys are fine, we may be tired, but I've seen the boys are well and very motivated. We should think it through when we are in the field.
Have you received any special instructions from the coach?
He tells us to be calm, not to press this fight. Serbia is a strong team, we've faced some of their players in Serina A, and they know we're strong and we can beat them.
How important will this fight be?
It's a direct match for the ambitions of both teams, so a victory would give us advantage to play our cards. //
