    • 90+3' Albania hold on! A deserved win, thanks to Hambdi Salihi's unerring finishing following a defensive mix-up. Euro 2012 Group D details
    • 83' Incredible miss by Salihi! Duro crosses from the right and finds his man completely unmarked two yards from goal, but the ball just hits the striker and bounces to safety!
    • 76' Salihi converts a free header for Albania but the celebrations are cut short by an offside flag against the forward.
    • 73' OFF THE POST! A brilliant, slick passing move by Albania culminates with Bulku playing in Salihi whose effort bounces back off the left-hand post!
    • 62' GOAL!! Terrible mix-up at the back from Belarus as Martynovich and verenko both leave an innocuous bouncing ball, and Hamdi Salihi smashes it into the top corner, thank you very much!
    • 22' A tetchy opening in Tirana, with three bookings - Salihi and Lala for Albania, Kulchiy for Belarus.
