About our Albania National Football Team news

Latest news on Albania National Football Team (Kuqezinjtë), covering matches, fixtures, results, qualifiers, squad, manager, and tournaments.

The Albania National Football Team represents one of the Balkans' most passionate footballing nations, with a devoted fanbase known for their fierce loyalty. The team's nickname, Kuqezinjtë (The Red and Blacks), references the national colours and symbolises the pride Albanians feel for their footballing representatives. The squad has earned qualification for the UEFA European Championship twice, reaching the tournament in 2016 and 2024, marking significant milestones in Albanian football history.

Albania's football journey began in 1930 when the Football Association was founded, with the team's first international match played against Yugoslavia in 1946. Early success came with victory in the 1946 Balkan Cup. For decades, Albania struggled to qualify for major tournaments, but the appointment of Italian coach Gianni De Biasi in 2011 proved transformative. His tenure culminated in Euro 2016 qualification, Albania's first appearance at a major tournament. The qualification campaign included a controversial match against Serbia and a historic victory over Romania at the finals, with Armando Sadiku scoring Albania's first-ever goal at a European Championship.
