Albania, who did not qualify for Euro 2020, is making its first appearance in the tournament since 2016.
They qualified by topping their group over the Czech Republic based on head-to-head records, losing only one of their eight matches.
Sylvinho, the former Arsenal, Barcelona, and Manchester City defender and current coach, has good reason to be proud of his team.
Albania hopes to surpass expectations and advance from this challenging group.
