The well-known American media outlet ESPN has made its prediction for the final play-off match for the 2026 World Cup between Kosovo and Turkey, seeing Kosovo as the winner of this decisive match.
According to prestigious media, the 'Dardans' have the potential to surprise Turkey, despite the high quality of their opponent and the fact that the Turks are considered favorites on paper.
In the published analysis, ESPN highly praises the team led by Franco Foda, emphasizing the energy and courage of the Kosovar players.
'Franco Foda's team is young, bold and full of pace and energy. The Kosovo players have the ability to shock a Turkish team filled with top-level talent, including Arda Guler, Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Kenan Yildiz.'
Turkey has won the previous two matches and will be the favourites, but the 'Fadil Vokrri' stadium will be in great shape on Tuesday, and a passionate atmosphere could be in Kosovo's favour. Winner: Kosovo,' the ESPN article states.
