CONCLUSION

Malisheva completed a dominant second-leg display that eliminated any remaining doubt from the first leg. Their organized structure and clinical conversion of chances produced a clear margin that reflected their overall superiority on the night. The visitors struggled to create meaningful opportunities and were unable to alter the flow once the second-half goals arrived. With clean sheets maintained across both legs Malisheva demonstrated defensive reliability alongside attacking output. The aggregate scoreline now stands decisively in their favor following the 5-0 result. This performance positions them strongly for the next stage while highlighting areas for Vllaznia Shkodër to address ahead of future fixtures.
