FC Drita Claim 2-1 Away Win Against KF Llapi

FC Drita secured an important 2-1 victory over KF Llapi in the Kosovo Superliga on 17 October 2026. The away side produced a composed performance, scoring in each half and holding off a strong response from Llapi to take all three points.

Drita started with purpose and took the lead in the 18th minute through Ardit Tahiri, who finished calmly after a flowing move through midfield. Llapi grew into the game and equalised in the 52nd minute when Ermal Krasniqi found space inside the box and converted from close range. The goal lifted the home crowd, and Llapi enjoyed their best spell of the match immediately afterwards.

Key Moments and Decisive Goal

Just as Llapi appeared to be building momentum, Drita regained control and scored the winner in the 77th minute. Besnik Krasniqi arrived late in the penalty area and guided a low shot into the corner after a well-placed cross from the left. Llapi pushed forward in the final minutes, but Drita’s defence stayed compact and limited clear chances.

The match was played at a high tempo, with both teams committed to pressing and quick transitions. Drita’s goalkeeper made one important save in stoppage time to confirm the result.

Tactical Story

FC Drita’s midfield trio controlled the rhythm of the game, particularly in the first half. They pressed Llapi’s ball-carriers and forced turnovers in dangerous areas. Llapi were more dangerous after the break when they increased the width of their attacks, but they left space behind their full-backs, which Drita exploited for the winning goal.

Standout Players and Table Impact

Tahiri was influential throughout for Drita, contributing a goal and linking play between midfield and attack. Krasniqi’s late run and finish proved decisive. For Llapi, Ermal Krasniqi was the brightest attacking threat and took his equalising goal well.

The win strengthens FC Drita’s position in the Kosovo Superliga standings and adds momentum to their title challenge. KF Llapi remain competitive but will be disappointed to concede from a defensive transition after working their way back into the match.
