Albania U-15 girls’ national team has achieved its second consecutive victory in the “UEFA Development Tournament,” defeating Estonia 2-1 this afternoon at the “House of Football” in Tirana.
The young Red and Blacks delivered a strong performance, impressing both with their style of play and their determination to secure another win.
Head coach Rabie Tota started the match with the following lineup: Vanesa Islami (GK), Ajlina Berisha, Tea Hasanaj, Elin Hasanaj, Egi Kuqja, Elinda Cobo, Estela Gjoni, Isabella Hoxha, Kejsi Allushi, Keisi Bajraktari, and Klea Selmani.
The breakthrough came in the 28th minute when Estela Gjoni put Albania ahead with a well-taken goal. The first half ended 1-0 in favor of the hosts. Estonia equalized in the 53rd minute, but their joy was short-lived. Just minutes later, Gjoni struck again—this time converting from the penalty spot—to restore Albania’s lead.
The match ended 2-1, giving Albania their second win in the tournament, following a 4-0 triumph over Moldova in their opening match.
Next up, Albania U-15 girls will face Kosovo U-15 on September 29 at 15:00, once again at the “House of Football.” The highly anticipated derby will be broadcast live on FSHF TV.
With two wins in a row, the Albanian youngsters have shown great promise and continue to build momentum in the prestigious UEFA Development Tournament.
