What a chokejob by Kukesi.

I had no doubt that Skenderbeu would advance. They looked like the clear better side in the first leg. Lilaj got a red card though so it's a significant loss for the next round. Latifi might not be there either.

Kudos to Skenderbeu.
Too bad Pejic didn't score that PK, Kukesi would have been through.

Skenderbeu through to the next round against Mlada Boleslav. Skenderbeu still have a good chance without lilaj, Shkendija beat Mlada last season, i'd expect Skenderbeu to be favourites.
Shkendija in to the next round against Trakai.

Not bad from Skenderbeu. Kairat had more than 2x their value on transfermarkt, unlike Partizani who lost to a team with half their value.
Too bad that fuckhead Takaj ruined all of the hard work with his match fixing.

Skenderbeu have the experience, for the past couple of seasons have exceeded 3rd round. It's the playoffs where the teams involved are at a really high level.

Such a pity for Kukesi, two posts and a missed penalty. On league rankings we're gonna get a lot of points thanks to the Skenderbeu winnig against a much better legged team.
Albanian league is 39th this year (record) and next year we will be even better.
All this thanks to Skenderbeu and Kukesi that seems they are now somehow professional teams. Partizani too may become the next big thing thanks to their new SD Moggi.

Partizani is one of those teams that has played more international game in euro league qualifications but has succeeded less than Skenderbeu or Kukesi have recent years. Moggi is there for the economical/professional image aspect of the team and the fact that he has many connections to western team directors/managers gives Partizani an easy access to players that otherwise would never come to play in Albanian superliga. Next season championship should be theirs , would be surprised if it happened otherwise. Only Skenderbeu and Kukesi will challenge them , probably if Korcaret get punished again with Kukesi loosing quality players then the league competition will be boring.

Moggi is there to select players too, he did that at Juventus. He will do a great job.

Moggi is like 80 years old. He has no energy to do anything.
