Albania loses the friendly with Israel and Rolando Maran makes his debut with a defeat on the red and black bench. A goal by Gloukh in the 73rd minute provoked a fight with Hysaj and others, with the gesture of silence towards the fans who shouted "Palestine" in chorus. The first match with the national team jersey for Luis Hasa, while few good things were seen in this challenge, with mistakes in the defensive phase, saved for a more serious passive, by the interventions of Sherri.
Maran's first change, apart from the scheme, was Anis Mehmeti who took Bajrami's place, while the others were in their places. Hoxha was preferred as a second striker in support of Broja, unable to recover Uzun with the flu, but the experiment is not that impressive. The Dinamo Zagreb winger could not do anything, often naturally shifted to the left. Another match under the tone of Broja, appearing only in an open field incursion. Mehmeti, fresh from promotion to the Premier League, could have been the protagonist, but missed a simple finalization in the heart of the area, after Hysaj's cross, in what was Albania's best chance.
Asllani did not take over, while the mistakes and defensive chaos created by Solomon were evident in the second half, where Sherri ascended to the podium, surrendering only in the 73rd minute, when Israel's counterattack gave Gloukh the opportunity to score the only goal of the friendly, which at that very moment turned hostile. The striker's gesture of silence with his finger, showing the Israeli emblem to the chorus of fans for Palestine, irritated Hysaj, who sought conflict with the author of the goal, including the others.
Then Hasa's debut was too late to judge the first performance, while Hadroji risked giving the second goal to Israel (Sherri the savior). Pajaziti lit up the midfield much more than Asllani, while Shpendi had very few minutes to do what he does on the Serie B fields. A defeat in the first friendly for Maran, who will now have three days to prepare for the second against Luxembourg.
