How to get to Albania

The Albanian team, led by Brazilian Sylvinho, is already guaranteed a place in the World Cup play-offs and will only progress through the final round of qualifying.

Albania continued their dream of qualifying for the World Cup for the first time in their history with a 1-0 win over Andorra.

The British team is the first to guarantee a place in the European qualifiers and this 10th round is the only time they will progress through the table. However, England still won 2-0 against Serbia.

England’s last-minute departure was due to Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi. The defender also did not feature in the team’s first match of the FIFA fixtures, which they defeated Serbia 2-0, and England confirmed he had returned to the club to undergo treatment for an injury. However, manager Thomas Tuchel did not call a replacement.
