Coach Calzon gave confidence to the same eleven players who took care of the sensational scalp of four -time world champions of the Germans on Thursday. The opening 15 minutes brought more dueling football. The Slovaks could not get to the pace and in 18. A minute there was not much to be paid. Dúbravka missed a “little home” from Škriniar, which was almost used by Muratovič. The Slovak goalkeeper corrected his mistake and thwarted his efforts to score a goal twice.
In the second attempt, the attacker Luxembourg hit him in the head. In the 28th minute Sauer got a long pass for the defense, leaving a direct kick from which Duda sent the ball to the goal of the goalkeeper Morisa. After half an hour, the space for the attack was opened to the home and Sinai with an unpleasant attempt forced Dúbravka to the procedure. At this stage, the Luxembourgers had the upper hand, the technical shot of Sinani was stopped by the right pole of the Slovak gate. Slovaks in the first half lacked offer activities and their games or hint was not emotion as three days ago.
Shortly after the break, it could be used by Sinai, who again stamped the pole, this time in a 100 % goal opportunity alone in front of Dúbravka. The home team could have led the multi -goal difference, but even the Slovaks did not take this threat seriously. At the 57th minute after Moreira’s goal, this time saved the offside position of the home player. The lethargic performance of the Slovak team continued, the gambling rooms did not even lift the arrivals of alternating players.
At 86 minutes Thill stretched Dúbravka after another dangerous attack. Finally, with great happiness in their first big chance, the guests took the victory to their side. Moris shot a shot of Tupta only in front of Riga and he broke the net – 0: 1. The home team no longer found an answer to this “slap” and, given the course, they suffered a cruel loss.
