The player who achieved perhaps the most important goal in the history of the Swiss female team now believes that PSV can shock Manchester United and tonight from Europe this week.

Last month, Riola Xhemaili brought late substituting UEFA female Euro hosted Switzerland in their decisive final group scene compared to Finland in Geneva. Switzerland was last few seconds from becoming the first nation of the host to fail to qualify for the nockout phase for 20 years.

Deep at stopping time, the 22nd year was prepared in starting the passage on the right and changed the stream of the wealth of its country. As a result of the goal, Switzerland was qualified for the quarterfinals for the tournament for the first time and ensured that the local interest in the competition was steadfast. Finally, the tournament violated the records of attending a previous release in England for three years earlier.

Not surprisingly, Xhemaili told me that this goal was the best moment of her career to date. “You have a home euro, a scoring for your country to bring them to the fourth finals – it’s just that I’ve been running in my family, I saw it too, really, I was really like a movie.” It was kind of like a movie. ” I’d say it’s kind of like a movie. “I’d say it’s like a movie.” I’d say it’s like a movie. “

This week, Xhemaili’s club side PSV begins an attempt to reach a new phase of the 18-team league in the League of the Women’s UEFA Champion. To do this, they will have to come through two rounds of qualifications. In the first of those, they are drawn in the mini-league in four teams with Manchester United and Tie Winners between Hammarbi and Metalist Kharkiv.

Manchester United are still looking for their first victory in the European competition after she lost over two legs to Paris St. German in qualifying circles two years ago. To lose the team on Wednesday, there is a double danger not only to go out of the Champions League, but it does not succeed in the new Women’s Cup of Europe and therefore entirely coming out of Europe.

Xhemaili was an adult idolized former Manchester United Player Cristiano Ronaldo. He is the reason she wears shirt number 7 and she mimiced his goal celebration when achieving PSV. “In the Premier League, I’ve always been a big fan of Manchester United at the time when Cristiano Ronaldo was there. When he stayed more for them.”

In 2023. year, Xhemaili signed for German giants, VFL Wolfsburg, extending his contract until 2027. Years last summer. However, the lack of play in the German club meant that she chose to go on a loan to PSV to play matches in front of Women EURUs in to ensure its choice in Switzerland squad.

Kshemaili scored ten times in Eredivisie for PSV for PSV, because they ended up on the second FC Twent Champion about the goal of the difference. Such was its success that the PSV has now signed it to a permanent contract until June 2028. years. Years. Still, she tells me she didn’t complain about her decision to join Wolfsburg.

“It’s always hard to say with big clubs like Wolfbsorg. I went there pretty young, but I didn’t even play in the Champions League. Also with the champion style (group phase).

“Still, I wouldn’t say it’s a mistake because I’ve learned so much on high intensity, as it is professional, you can always learn, but of course, you always want to play as a football player.”

Another former Wolfsburg player joined Kshemaili in PSV in January, the Dutch striker of Fenna Calma. 2022 year, Calma was The female player of the highest residence in the world But her career paused in Germany. Playing again in Dutch Eredivisie, Calma is revived, scoring 11 times in 15 games, but will probably miss this week to injury.

Xhemaili also played along with the current Manchester United Vedfielder Dominique Jansen in Wolfsburg. The two are likely to come into direct opposition during the game on Wednesday. “It was a really good friend. I look forward to seeing her next week.”

“She Really Helped Me When I Was at Wolfsburg Because and Was A As a Really Nice Person To Talk To, If I Had A Problem O or Didn’t Have Easy Moments And A Leader Obviously, Also a Hard Opponent. I’m In The Number ’10’ Position, she is in the ‘6’ SO We Will Face Each Other, That’s Also Really Quite Funny and Nice. “

Kshemaili is one of the many members of the current Swiss detachment that was born outside the country in its case. He speaks Albanian and regularly visits Kosovo. And her father and uncles played the game, but Kshemaili initially great great great, before her balls with the ball in her legs, she noticed FC Basel.

There was the only girl in the boy team, playing next to his twin brother. Such was her ability, even chosen in Captain Boy U15 Team. In the same age, she debuted in the National Women’s League and did not look back. It hopes her journey can be inspiration to other girls in Switzerland with immigrant origin.

“It’s not easy to be accepted because you don’t look like a 100% Swiss, you have a lot of players from different backgrounds, it was not a problem. We had a good team spirit, we felt like a family.”
