GOTHENBURG. Kosovar Asllani recently became a historic Real Madrid scorer.

Now describe the feeling and the pride.

– It was “meant to be” .. says the forward.

Kosovar Asllani is living his dream in the recently inaugurated Real Madrid women’s team, which after last season took over what was previously called CD Tacón. It has become a historic beginning. It is true that the first season started with a great defeat against Barcelona, ​​but after that, the team won and got its first scorer in the highest women’s league in Spanish football.

It was Kosovar Asllani, 31, from Kristianstad.

The Swedish striker scored in the 22nd minute of the club’s second league game against Valencia. The match ended 1-1 and meant that Real Madrid took the points and that “Kosse” was highlighted by the team’s first league goal.

Talk about the feeling

In connection with the qualifying rounds of the European Championship of the national team in Gothenburg, he talks about the sensation after the historic goal.

– I will not hide under a chair that was special. I also thought thoughts, even if you play your game, it almost feels like fate, it says and continues:

– We had situations where I released our players, but it was as if they lost those opportunities. They were strange situations. We had an entrance where two players just had to tap it, but they collided. So instead of one of them doing it. For my part, it felt special.

Were you getting into the history books?

– Yes. It was “meant to be” … says the forward.

After the draw, Real Madrid won their first game, against Rayo Vallecano. Also in that match, Kosovar Asllani became the scorer.

– It feels unbelievably good. We got the toughest team to face at the premiere (Barcelona), especially when we hadn’t had training matches. It’s nice that we take the first three points and that you yourself contributed along that path, he says, but he is well aware that the distance to Barcelona is great.

– Barça has had their team for a long time and they played together, so it affects that way. They have also played the final of CL so it is a bit up. It is by far the best team in the league. It’s a bit up there, but I hope it doesn’t take too long to disturb you.

Raises questions

Right now, however, the focus is on the Swedish national team and the European Championship qualifiers. Latvia on Thursday and the important league final against Iceland next week.

Kosovar Asllani did not train with the national team at Ullevi in ​​Gothenburg on Tuesday, which raises some questions but points to matches.

– I recovered in the gym, that was what my body needed today. We get to see quite simply, we take one day at a time. But I hope I can train in the next few days.

You don’t want to answer directly if you have any kind of injury
– Even there I had a different setup this week, but I played this weekend. But now it is mainly about what is best for me to be able to play the next matches.

For the rest, the whole team trained, except for Stina Blackstenius who still had not got the go-ahead to join the squad. The Gothenburg attacker has had cold symptoms and has been tested for covid-19.
