The four things we learned from Slovenia – Greece:
1. LOW PAGE, GREECE MORE DANGEROUS
The first half in “Stadion Stožice “had some good moments in front of the two hosts and moved at a slow pace. In fact, it was not a classic opportunity, with our national team being more threatening than Slovenia, but we were not happy to score. Our internationals closed well. spaces, did not leave the hosts within a stone’s throw and tried to beat Barça only with long shots, which did not worry the Celta goalkeeper.
Greece aggressively “charged” mainly its right side with Bakaki and Limnio. He made a false shot off Pavlidis in the 6th minute that was blocked by Oblak, while ten minutes later Blazic almost scored an own goal after a throw-in. Good moment for Ethniki in the 26th minute, with Limnios dribbling, crossing and Giannoulis unable to find the ball and beating the neutralized Oblak. Three minutes later, after another good cooperation between Bacaceta and Bakaki, the ball was in Pavlidis in the small area, but his heel found the Atlético goalkeeper in hand, in the last remarkable phase of the first 45 minutes.
2. THE BEST MOMENT BELONGS TO THE SLOVANS
The second half was even slower, the two goalkeepers were having a quiet night and the only moments they lacked to intervene were long shots, which in no case could threaten them. The teams were clearly affected by the inactivity of months and had no rhythm, while as the game progressed they wanted to “lock” at least the degree of equality. Of course, although the finals were 6-14 for our National Team, which also had 60% possession of the ball, the best moment was for the hosts. After a cross by Zivets from the right, Sporar fired a close shot, but fortunately the ball passed near Barça’s left crossbar, neutralized.
3. THE INACTIVITY OF THE MONTHS OF THE AFFECTED NATIONAL TEAMS
The ten-month inactivity was seen in the two teams, who could not find a rhythm. Especially our National Team, which in previous matches with Van Sipp played beautiful football, reached many finals and showed signs of improvement, did not manage to have a similar image in Slovenia. Of course, this is something that John Van Seep was waiting for, who saw the blue and white come out “unscathed”. He may not have wanted with his performance, but at least he didn’t lose. This is also a gain.
4. GALANOLEFKI EXPANDED ITS INVINCIBLE SERIES
The Selection came from three consecutive victories with the Dutch federal elector on the bench and wanted to expand it. Trade and go. The 0-0 in Ljubljana maintained the unbeaten streak of our representative team, which on Sunday night (9/6, 9:45 pm) faces Kosovo away from home and has the first word in the triple. The first is the clear objective and should not be missed.
