Slovenia continues preparations in Wuppertal for the opening match of Euro 2024, which is now truly just around the corner. The European Championship will start tonight with the match between Germany and Scotland, and Slovenia will play for the first time on Sunday against Denmark. National team defender David Brekalo emphasizes that the latter is not unknown to Slovenia, considering that the two teams were already in the same qualifying group, and he warns that the most important thing will be how Kek’s team approaches the match.
“We cannot afford to concede cheap goals like against Denmark in Ljubljana. If we are not at our best, as you have seen, we can have difficulties even against a team like Malta. Let alone against stronger teams… We have to go into the match maximally, 100 percent. The same goes for every duel, for every ball. Half-hearted efforts in football bring nothing good, only problems,” says David Brekalo, who plays for Orlando in the MLS in the United States of America.
David Brekalo: “We know how to approach the match”
David Brekalo, a former member of Bravo and Viking, said about Denmark: “We have already studied them, but we know them well from the Euro 2024 qualifiers anyway. I don’t know if we will see anything new. The most important thing will be that we are at our best. Only then can we achieve anything. We are well aware of their strongest points, and we will have to be especially careful of Rasmus Hojlund and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. We know a lot about the opponent, and we also know how to approach the match. However, the most important thing is to focus only on ourselves and our game.”
Slovenia, which will play its landmark tenth match in major tournaments, and Denmark will face off at the stadium in Stuttgart. The group match, which also includes England and Serbia, will begin at 6 PM.
