An evening to forget. But if it started badly, let it continue much better… Slovenia faced a shocking defeat on their visit to Malta, but in the end, they managed to avoid it. It ended 2-2, and the goals for Slovenia were scored by players who have been rapidly climbing the ranks of the top national team scorers. In Malta, the first goal for Slovenia was scored by Andraž Šporar, and the second was contributed by Benjamin Šeško, both celebrating their eleventh goal in the national team jersey.
Šporar and Šeško have caught up with former national team striker Tim Matavž in Malta, and now only seven players are ahead of them. The next target for the members of Panathinaikos and RB Leipzig will be Milenko Aćimović, the current coach of the youth national team, who has only two goals ahead. The following four are not far behind: Ermin Šiljak has a four-goal lead, Josip Iličić, Primož Gliha, and Sašo Udovič each have five.
The all-time top scorers have a much larger advantage: legendary Zlatko Zahović scored 36 goals, while Milivoje Novaković scored two goals less (34).
All-time Top Scorers of Slovenia:
