Albania lost 2-0 to England at Wembley, starting their journey to the 2026 World Cup with a loss.
Armando Broja, who played 30 minutes of this match in the second half, giving another rhythm to the Rossoneri's game, expressed regret for the result in his post-match statement, saying that the goals could have been avoided.
"We knew it would be difficult. England is a very high level, with France, Belgium, Holland, Spain. We know they have quality, but anything is possible. We had chances to score goals, but England has quality. Even when a player gets tired, another very good one can come in. The team played well, we had opportunities not to concede those two goals, they were not beautiful or dangerous goals. One was a pass behind the back and the other a cross to the far post," said Broja.
He admitted that he is happy to return to the red and black colors, saying: " I missed the National Team, it is my home, my heart. I hope to continue 100% ."
Regarding his physical form, which it must be said is not the best, as he only returned a week ago after an injury suffered with Everton in January, Broja said he hopes the injury nightmare is over for him.
"I just came back from injury, I came back. It's been difficult for me this year, I'm focused on myself, on my body. I don't want to get hurt again, I really liked how my body and the game went. I had chances too. Another day we can take advantage of those chances we had. These are the little things we can do. I missed the national team a lot. I really like playing for the national team. The fans today were wonderful, they gave us courage, they were very good. I'm happy to be back with the team and the guys", said the red and black bomber. (A2 Televizion)
