Goran Cvijanović has signed off on a fine achievement for the Under-16 national team: Young Slovenians defeated Greece and won the developmental tournament
Slovenian U16 national team, which was recently taken over by former top midfielder Goran Cvijanović, participated in a developmental tournament under the auspices of UEFA and emerged victorious in Bosnia and Herzegovina alongside the home team and selected squads from Hungary and Greece.
Slovenia U16 drew with Hungary 2:2 in the first round (the teams then went to penalties, with the opponent prevailing, but each team added a point), defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 5:2 in the second, and then defeated Greece 4:2 on Monday in the third match. Due to a better goal difference than Hungary, this was enough for the final victory; Slovenia U16 thus won the developmental tournament. Greece finished third, and Bosnia and Herzegovina last.
Slovenia, which was extremely efficient in Bosnia and Herzegovina, scoring 11 goals in three matches, started the decisive game with the following lineup: Golič, Kujraković (from 58th Slovenc), Novak (from 78th Kumer Čelik), Šimnovec, Varmaz Plava (from 58th Blaško), Viher, Durmiši (from 72nd Hočevar), Belovič (from 58th Kranjc), Mehle, Jurić (from 78th Zver), Letonja (from 72nd Špacapan), and eventually won 4:2. Goals for Cvijanović’s team were scored by Matevž Šimnovec from Bravo (36th), Nejc Viher from Maribor (59th, 61st), and Svit Hočevar from Olimpija (76th).
