Duel with Serbia, Qazim Laçi: Only for victory, let's not get

National team midfielder, Qazim Laçi, spoke at a press conference on the eve of the match against Serbia.

Laçi said that the Rossoneri will enter the field only to win, while they will try to avoid emotions.

"We have a very strong match, we play at home, there is no one team favored, equal and it will be visible on the field. We will prepare ourselves for the victory, it is important at the moment. We will try to take the match as professionals and not get so excited like people outside. This is a good thing because we can also give more on the field.

I believe the fans will always be behind us, as they always have been. It is definitely a very special match, we just have to be careful. The fans in all these years that I have been here have never done anything bad. I believe they will be correct. We welcome them at the stadium, they help us and support us as much as possible.

Physically, all the players will be well prepared, but mentally I believe it will be more important. Physically, it will not be easy for many players to be at the right level, but mentally, you have to be there.

We have a great chance because we play at home. I believe this will be our strength. From the first minute we have to go in with the idea of ??winning the game, leaving emotions out. We have to work in training, some things we talked about with the coach I hope will come out on the field.

Is it better to play the first match in Albania or Serbia? It doesn't matter, we are professionals, we will deal with the football aspect. It is a good thing that we have matches at home, we will have the support of the fans, we will try to give our maximum for the 3 points that will be important and for the qualification for the World Cup.

I don't believe that the national team lacks heart, the players also have the mentality to win this match.

"In my opinion, we have never had an easy match. We must always keep in mind that we have two matches, including the match with Latvia. A victory against Serbia should be linked to a victory in Latvia and it will be all the better for everyone," said the Albanian midfielder.
