Vedat Muriqi becomes the 4th Kosovar international to score in the Champions League ๐
The Pirate's winning goal against Liverpool secured Fenerbahรงe's first UCL victory since 2008!

๐ The failure to have a club qualify for the Conference League is punishing Kosovo!
We've dropped two places since the start of the UECL, and we're very close to losing the 36th place to Finland, if KuPS manages to win any of their remaining matches.
Catastrophic!
Drita have been eliminated by Inter Club d'Escaldes, and Kosovo is now left without a club.
Three countries listed below us; ๐ง๐ฆ, ๐ฑ๐ป & ๐ซ๐ฎ need just a single draw in the league phase to overtake Kosovo ๐ฝ๐ฐ๐
Drita's draw against Inter Club d'Escaldes adds another 0.125 points to the coefficient.
It's all to play for next week in Andorra, with a win being crucial for the coefficient race!
Kosovo remains in 34th position after the end of the third round.
All countries on the list are chasing a spot in the UECL, except Armenia (Ararat), which has already secured it via the UEL play-off.
It's very likely we'll finish the season in this position!
๐ History made by Mitrovica!
Kosovar champions have defeated Ferencvรกros, becoming the first Kosovar club to participate in the Womenโs Europa Cup.
Best of luck to our girls ๐
๐ After their huge victory, Drita is now predicted to have a 100% chance of reaching the play-offs!
Based on Opta Power Rankings, Drita has the highest chance of reaching the League Phase:
๐ฝ๐ฐ Drita - 65%
๐ฆ๐ฉ Inter Club d'Escaldes - 31%
๐ช๐ช Flora Tallinn - 4%
๐ธ๐ฒ Tre Fiori - 0%
@RMAFooty Hopefully
The luck was on Drita's side on draws, they have a great chance to win the remaining 3 and even get some points in the league phase.
This season could turn out to be very good in the end ๐
Drita's win keeps Kosovo's position unchanged.
Before kick-off, Latvia was set to climb two places to 34th, but victories for both Borac and Drita kept the table unchanged.
With the gap narrowing, another win in Prishtina is a must!
@RMAFooty Correct, unfortunately.
Even if theoretically, Drita pushes us to top 33, we would lose it within a season, as many countries below us are having a fantastic season.
Until we have at least 2 competitive clubs, thereโs gonna be only decline in the upcoming seasons.
Kosovo climbs above Bosnia in the UEFA Country Rankings ๐ฝ๐ฐ๐
