"Absolute merit of my players," Gjoka after the victory: "Doka had issues, but he was needed due to his experience."

Skënderbeu defeated Laçi 2-1 away in the match for the 33rd round of the Albanian Superiore. At the end of the game, Korça's coach, Ernest Gjoka, appeared at the press conference to speak to the media.

"This was a very important and tough match against a direct opponent. The absolute merit goes to my players, who showed their strength and qualities on such a field. Considering the weather conditions and the wind, they did not give up. The wind had a huge impact, and we couldn’t play the ball on the ground.

It was impossible to play the ball on the ground, at least in the goalkeeper's area, it was a very risky situation, so we chose for the goalkeeper to play with long balls. I think the opponent also gave us the field; we were able to manage this situation, and we got to the goal. There were different moments in the game, sometimes there was confusion in certain zones.

At certain moments, the fast intensity of Laçi’s players caught us off guard, leading to some mistakes. Doka had problems on the field, but we pushed him to play because of his experience. Even Lukas' experience gave us some oxygen in the attacking phase," Gjoka expressed.

“KORÇA BOOM”
