Funny, my understanding of the situation is the exact opposite... First of all, when did Serbia try to take part of Albania?
Secondly, the animosity between the two countries stemmed from Albania instigating unrest in Kosovo for separatism during the Yugoslav wars. That's exactly what Saddam was doing in Khuzestan both pre and post revolution.
And if anything the Albanians came on top by eventually splitting Kosovo from Serbia and all that is in the past and both countries have full diplomatic relations now.
On that note, I find waving an extremist victory flag that says we'll come and get the rest of your lands from you, during a football game out of all times, played in Serbia out of all places, a rather distasteful and disgraceful expression of a political agenda, which has no place in a sporting arena.
And none of the articles I read mentioned anything about death chants or stones or flares being thrown before the drone entered the stadium.
