Vora writes history, climbs to the elite for the first time
Holiday

Vora has officially ascended to the elite of Albanian football. The 2-0 triumph over Burrel at home completed a historic achievement for Arian Bellai's team, two weeks before the end.

Vora leads the standings in the First Category with 76 points, 7 points more than second-place Flamurtari.

A season to remember for coach Arjan Bellaj, a former Albanian and many team footballer, but with experience on the bench after leading Bylis for two seasons before moving to Vora, where he will most likely be confirmed for next season in the Superiore.

One of the keys to Vora's success, Manfredas Ruzgis. The 28-year-old Lithuanian international scored 24 important goals to help his team, I hope he doesn't leave and plays in the Abissnet Superiore next season.

Asked after the match, Bellaj said:

"First of all, I want to give all the congratulations and the best words to the footballers, they are the ones who reflect our work, everything on the field of play. They have done it from day one until today, staying at the top of the table and deserving promotion to the Super League. I am pleased, last year I enjoyed Bylis, this year we became champions.

Continuing in the Superiore? I spoke with the president, we will talk later. Let's finish these two matches, the training. It's a big time and the footballers shouldn't stay that long.

I congratulate the players, but I don't want to forget the staff, the technical director, the workers we have every day who serve us so that the players don't lack anything and that we are all satisfied.

The president has the largest percentage, offering these conditions and the opportunity for a president to collaborate with a coach like me. It is a pleasure that at first we thought of not taking captains but soldiers. Everyone has shown it, we have taken young 23-year-olds who wanted to grow and run. Then there are the staff footballers, they are the footballers who have endured, worked hard and sacrificed for this day.”

Meanwhile, the drama was in Vlora. Where the red and black team led by Pollozhani, who replaced Agostinel two weeks ago, lost the direct duel to Besa e Kavajës, who deservedly won 0-2 at the "Flamurtari" stadium and now in the remaining two weeks will hope to capture second place, which is only 1 point away (where Flamurtari is located).

The yellow and blues will have a match next week against the champion Vora, who has secured everything, while Flamurtari will play against Erzeni (who has been relegated) but will go to Vora in the last match.
