Albania failed to qualify for the top 16. The 0-1 loss against Spain ended the red and black national team's dream of writing history.

Coach Sylvinho, while speaking after the match, said that Albania leaves this European tournament with its head held high and with young players. The coach said that now the focus will be on the World Cup qualifiers.

"Let's go out with our heads held high. We were in the group of death, with European and World champions. With big stars. I am sad about the result, but not about the performances. We came out of this competition with our heads held high. In every game we had our opportunities.

As for the European. We have reached a very important finish. I am very happy with the players. We saw 6-7 very young players on the field during these matches. But also other experienced players who have done very well in these challenges. Everyone thought we would lose 3 or 4 to 0 to these teams, but we were there, in the game until the end.

I want to thank the Federation and all the staff that we worked with. We have the Nations League ahead of us and then we will focus on the World Cup qualifiers. We have shown growth and we must continue to experience the emotions of the European Championship again, but also of the World Cup" , declared Silvinjo.
