'We got what we deserved'
Ryan Giggs
Wales manager
It's a disappointed changing room, we should have won.
I smelled it in the first half that we could get a result that could go against us because of our complacency and concentration.
We got what we deserved in the end.
The second half they score, the game plan goes completely out the window, throwing balls in the box which are easy to defend, not moving the ball and not doing things that we train to do.
In the end Albania looked the more dangerous and like they were going to score the second goal.
'We weren't good enough'
Wales captain Chris Gunter on BBC Radio Wales
We wanted to come here and end the year with a good performance and result and we haven’t done that.
There’s things we need to work on and we know ourselves we weren’t good enough tonight.
It wasn’t about the ref… we weren’t good enough on the night.
Obviously it’s disappointing and it’ll hurt for a few days.
We look forward to the draw (Euro 2020 qualifiers) in a couple of week and we’ll come back in March when we’ve got some real big games.

What the fans think...

'Desperate'
Iwan Roberts
Former Wales striker and BBC pundit
I thought we played well in the first half, and on another day we could have gone 3-0 up.
How Sam Vokes has missed only he knows.
Albania got belief and grew into the second half.
In the end I think we looked desperate.

Cause for concern?

David: Worried about how Wales have played tonight, Giggs has got it wrong the last few games, I just hope this talented group of players we've got doesn't go to waste.

It wasn't to be.
The free kick is fired straight into the wall and it's all over in Elbasan.

Can Gareth Bale rescue Wales?
They have a free kick a yard outside of the box.

Albania 1-0 Wales
Wales are basically down to 10 men now, Andy King is injured and Wales are all out of substitutes.

Albania 1-0 Wales
Rabbi Matondo is showing signs of his pace, but the final ball is lacking for Wales.
Naive again but in a different way
Albania 1-0 Wales
Kevin Ratcliffe
Former Wales captain on BBC Radio Wales
Wales have been naive again, but in a different way. We were too open against Denmark and tonight we've been too rushed, everything has felt forced.
