The cadets played their first match in the decisive qualifying tournament for a place in the European Championship. The team led by coach Muamer Vugdalić faced the home team in Austria and had to admit defeat. The hosts defeated the Slovenian under-17 national team 2-0. Goals for the home team were scored by Florian Hangl in the 30th minute and Oghenetejiri Adejenughure in the 61st minute. Slovenia will play their second match on Saturday, facing Spain.
Slovenia threatened for the first time in the 14th minute when David Pejičić attempted a shot, but the Austrian goalkeeper saved his effort. In the 30th minute, the hosts took the lead. After Slovenia lost possession in the midfield, the Austrians combined well with Sorg, Spalt, and Hangl. Hangl received a pass into space, dribbled towards the edge of the penalty area from the left side of the field, and then clinically finished into the goalkeeper’s top left corner.
In the second half, the Austrians created their first serious chance. Tai Žnuderl initially made an excellent save from Austria’s powerful shot, but the ball rebounded to Muizi, who sent the ball over the crossbar from close range. In the 62nd minute, Austria extended their lead. They executed a nice attack down the right side, which was concluded by Adejenughure after a series of passes. In the 69th minute, Žnuderl made a great save to prevent Ensar Mušić from scoring another goal for Austria.
