It's a shame that they play Besiktas next and Partizani some Andorran team.

That’s why it’s so much easier to qualifier via the champions path. Qualifying via conference league path is so much more difficult for the smaller clubs.

It’s a shame that Partizani got cheap. Tirana for Superliga standards have some dynamic players with Hasani, Abazaj and Luskja. Both guys could have been available for Partizani.

Also Doka, Hoxhallari, Selmani.. These fringe/washed NT players can be effective at this level.

I can't believe Rrogozhina has a team. Are they all inmates who got locked up for selling weed?

Did they also fix this match? That keeper is sketchy as f***. Every time Egnatia goes up, he lets a goal through. That last goal was laughable.

And they let in the game winning goal after this. Lol. Fucking criminals.

Yes it's team of those guys who got caught with 300+ kg of weed, Agim Demrozi is the president of the club.

I don't know if it's the same guy, but there are articles online about an Agim Demrozi being charged with selling drugs in Durres (which is right next to Rrogozhine anyhow)

So on to the next round we have:

Partizani vs. Atletic d'Escaldes
Tirana vs Besiktas
Ballkani vs. Larne
Drita vs. Vikrotia Plzen
Dukagjini vs. Rijeka
Struga vs. Buducnost
Shkupi vs. Levski Sofia

Only Ballkani and Struga have a chance imo to go through.

Conference League Third Round should our teams progress further:

Atletic Club D’Escaldes-Partizani/ Tre Penne-Valmiera

Struga-Budocnost/ The New Saints-Swift Hesper

Ballkani-Larne/ Lincoln Red IMPS

Besiktas-Tirana/Zeljeznicar-Neftci

Shkupi-Levski Sofia/ Hapoel Ber Sheva-Panevz

Rijeka-Dukagjini/ B36 Torshavn-Haverfordwest

Viktoria Plzen-Drita/Gzira-Diddelang

On paper, Ballkani, Struga, and Partizani have an easy draw and should reach the playoffs.
Realistically, Ballkani is the only one most likely to not choke.

Partizani wins away in Andorra 1-0 and pretty much guarantees moving on to the next round. They will most likely play Valmiera in the next round.
