Sylvinho: We needed this victory, we are improving

Sylvinho

Albania coach Sylvinho praised the victory over Andorra. He said that it was not possible to play in the same way against England.

"They are two very different games. England is a very strong team and we tried to counter-attack. With Andorra it was completely different. We used Hoxha and Broja on the wings. We also tried Shehu, who did a very good performance.

We needed this win to get back into the game. The road to the World Cup is different. We are improving, but it is more difficult to get to the World Cup. Now we look towards the matches in June.

"I'm very happy with Broja. I hope he doesn't suffer any more injuries. I'm happy with all the players who played a very good match," said Sylvinho.
