Lara Prašnikar recently discussed fans in an interview for Planet Nogomet, emphasizing that it would be wonderful if they supported the Slovenian women’s national team in greater numbers. Apparently, her words fell on fertile ground, as the Združeni navijači are expected to support the women’s national team already next Friday when the girls go into battle against Austria for a chance to qualify for the European Championship.
Lara Prašnikar: “It’s always nice to play when you have fans on your side!”
Prašnikar and her teammates secured additional qualifications through a brilliant national cycle in the Nations League. In League C, they won all six matches, also boasting the fact that they kept a clean sheet in all six games. The results and the team’s performance indicate that the national team has been on the rise for some time. However, what they likely lack for even more success is that extra spark from the stands, those few voices that can rally the entire stadium and create a truly spectacular atmosphere. The Slovenian representatives will experience this in Koper, where they will first receive support from the United Fans.
“If I say that the support of organized fans would mean a lot to us, I believe I speak for all the players. The twelfth player can truly contribute to many things. We have seen this with the men’s national team, and not only in the national team but also in club football. It’s always nice to play when you have fans on your side, and they give you that extra motivation,” Lara Prašnikar recently stated in an interview. The fans added: “Let’s help the girls too! They deserve support in such an important match with their performances. Free entry to the match. Good company. The importance of the match. All these are reasons to attend.”
The match between Slovenia and Austria will be the first of two in the first round of the additional qualifications for the European Championship, which will be held next year in Switzerland. If our girls successfully overcome their northern neighbors, they will be just one step away from qualifying for the European Championship. In the final round, they will face the stronger team from the pairing of Romania – Poland.
