Vllaznia triumphed over Egnatia with a score of 2-0 in the opening match of the Superiore, in a match that was not without controversy.

The people of Rrogozhina have claims about the refereeing, which, according to them, acted with double standards.

After the match, Egnatia coach Edlir Tetova said that the referee had a very strange influence. The allegations are about the red card and the penalty.

"It was a very beautiful match on the field, but there was a very strange influence of the refereeing since the first match. The allegations are about the red card, the allegations are about the penalty, if there is body contact in the 46th minute when Xhemajli was stepped on, then it is a penalty. Even VAR sees it and doesn't give it, we have our own screen on the bench and it is very strange. Then the Vllaznia player pulls his shirt and he surprisingly gives him a reverse foul and punishes him with a yellow card."

On the other hand, Vllaznia's sports director, Vioresin Sinani, appeared very happy, emphasizing that the best team on the field won.

"Against a very strong opponent, I believe it was a beautiful match for the public as well. I think the best team won and I hope we continue like this. As for the allegations, I think the red card against our coach should not have been given, as for the penalty, I think I need to see it again."

"The coach is respected by me and I think Vllaznia got the deserved victory. The new reinforcements are all valuable."

For the author of the second goal, Melos Bajrami, the victory over Egnatia gives impetus to the future of Vllaznia, which is aiming for the championship title this season.

"The important thing is that the team wins. I'm happy that I helped the team both in Europe and here. Every victory is important, but when the championship starts like this, it's like a good start. Competition makes the team better and every team needs it. We were motivated to win, both for the coach and for the fans."

In the second week, Vllaznia challenges Dinamo on the road, while Egnatia hosts Elbasan in Rrogozhina.
