In a closely contested Albanian Cup match, FK Kukesi managed to secure a 2-1 victory over KS Pogradeci. The match began with an early spark from Pogradeci, as they took the lead with a swift goal in the eighth minute. This early goal seemed to fuel Kukesi’s determination, as they intensified their offensive efforts with nine corner kicks compared to Pogradeci's seven, underscoring their dominance in creating set-piece opportunities.

Kukesi's comeback was orchestrated in the second half, with their equalizing goal at 59 minutes and the winner coming at the 79-minute mark. This surge in performance highlights Kukesi's cohesive team play and strategic adjustments post-halftime. The home team’s ability to convert one of their nine corners into a decisive goal showcases their effective set-piece strategy, a crucial factor in their victory.

Discipline and precision were also on display, as Kukesi managed to avoid any offsides calls throughout the game, unlike their opponents who were caught offside twice. This discipline contributed significantly to maintaining their attacking momentum and eventually breaking down Pogradeci’s defense. Meanwhile, Pogradeci, despite their early lead and solid defensive efforts with relatively few fouls and no yellow cards, failed to sustain their advantage against a more coordinated and adaptive Kukesi side.
