The Paris Final Draw gave its verdict for 24 participants of Euro 2016.
DailyMail has dedicated an article to the match between Albania and
Switzerland, saying that Albania will have six players born to
Switzerland, while the Swiss team had the chance to chose its Albanian
players.
Albania is thousands of kilometers away, but mass immigration of Balkan has made it possible for dozens of football players to make their choice between Albania and Switzerland.
The most unique case is that of the Xhaka brothers, Granit and Taulant, who will play against each other in the first match of Group A.
It is not the first time that two brothers play against each other in high level matches. There is the case of the Boateng brothers in the World Cup 2014. But it is the first time that it happens in Europe.
Granit Xhaka will play for Sitzerland, while Taulant Xhaka decided to defend the Albanian team.
Amir Abrashi has also played earlier for Switzerland, even in the Olympic Games of 2012, but this didn’t stop him from choosing Albania.
Switzerland trusts Xherdan Shaqiri on her team, who was born in Gjilan by Albanian parents and who moved when he was 1 year old.
Pajtim Kasami was also born in Switzerland with Albanian parents, while Valon Behrami moved there when he was five.
