Even Miran Pavlin is optimistic and, in an interview with Sportal, he revealed an interesting anecdote from the draw in Hamburg. The former footballer touched upon Slovenia’s second opponent in Germany, Serbia, and emphasized that he sensed at the draw that the Serbs were not particularly pleased to have Slovenes as opponents.
“At the draw in Hamburg, I felt that the Serbs were very afraid. Phew… I felt fear, and we will use that,” Miran Pavlin emphasized for Sportal, who once played for the iconic Portuguese club Porto, and added: “In their minds, they think they are much better. And maybe they are, considering individuals. But at the same time, they are such good football connoisseurs that they are aware they should not ‘mess around’ with us.“
