The 2-0 defeat to England at Wembley seems acceptable to coach Sylvinho. In a statement after the match, the Brazilian coach of the red and black national team said that against a rival of this level, you can concede 5 goals.
"England is one of the strongest national teams, they have two very strong central defenders. This was just the first match. It's not very easy to come to Wembley and win. The best players in the world play here, it's difficult. I'm very happy and proud of all the players who enter the field. If you don't go on the field organized, you can concede 5 goals," said Sylvinho.
Next, the Albanian coach analyzed his boys' play, appreciating the contribution of Armando Broja, who in 30 minutes gave a spark to the red and black offense, but also Myrto Uzuni, who started as a starter.
"In the second half we played better. When Broja came on, he did a good job. We could have come close to equalizing there, but they scored the second goal and we lost. If you don't prepare a game well in the first 45 minutes, it ends badly. We had difficulty pressing the opponent. Only Uzun can attack the spaces. We made a mistake in the first pass to get out of the area. The moment you get out of this pressing that the English do, you can take risks," declared Sylvinho.
Full-back Ivan Balliu and returning starter Naser Aliji also received a passing grade from the coach.
"On the other side, there is an opponent, a technically fantastic team, very, very strong. It was difficult for the full-backs, Aliji is playing as a center, not a winger at Dinamo. But for us, he has often played winger, I want to compliment him because he played a very good game. Even Balliu, who came without playing many minutes, had to deal with Rashford," said Sylvinho.
