After “surviving” the initial round of qualifiers, where they finished second in a far-from-easy group with Belgium, Ireland, and Albania, the Slovenian youth team secured their place in the decisive round of battles for the upcoming UEFA European Under-19 Championship. The UEFA conducted the draw today, and, naturally, the team led by coach Anton Žlogar discovered their opponents.
The task will be far from easy, but if Slovenia aims to progress to the next Euro U19, they’ll need to outperform Spain, Austria, and Kosovo. The challenge grows larger as only the first-place team advances to the European Championship (UEFA will organize it next year in Northern Ireland, where the youth will compete from July 15th to 28th). As an interesting note, this Euros will also serve as qualification for the FIFA World Cup, where the top five teams will secure spots.
Slovenia will play the second and deciding round of qualifiers in the month of March next year.
