KEK Current Judges and Sent Sent a warning
The Slovenian national football team was looking forward to winning 1-0 at yesterday’s preparatory match in Luxembourg. With a rather modified cast by a selector Matjaz Kek He did not work special conclusions, but mostly was satisfied with the shown. He also wants the right level in Tuesday’s match against Bosnia and Herzegovina at the full stadium in Celje.
Due to health problems, he could not count on Benjamin Seska, Jan Cloud and Adama Nest Cherinaand on the first list, there was a lack of some players who are usually called up by Kek. Thus, more footballers were given the opportunity with less or no play minutes in the member line.
« One match and some training sessions cannot yet give the conclusions, but it is good to win in the end, » the coach said after the match, pointing out that his guards had opened the match poorly, but there were many things in the following. « The match showed me who had been playing minutes lately and who will have to raise the level of play, minutes and the like, » Kek added.
The Slovenes also won the fifth mutual match with Luxembourg, but despite the good resistance of the domestic band, the victory could be a little higher, as the judges repealed a completely regular hit Blaža Kramerwhich was far from unauthorized position. There was no VAR system in a friendly match, so they did not attach a goal to the Kramer. « This should not happen at this level, » the selector commented on the decision of the Maltese judges.
The debut was enough to win Tamar Svetinawho found himself well in the penalty area, where he had removed the goalkeeper of Luxembourg with his heel. « It’s not the first time Tamar responded in a football way, » said Kek, noting that players like Tamar did not show too much fear and respect. « This is definitely mileage and the result of games in European competitions. »
“It led to the victory. It is clear that the staff calls for some refreshments, but that’s why we play such matches. I congratulate the boys, we won, and maybe we don’t have as short a bench as we sometimes think with me at the helm, « Kek said, pointing out that the boys had done well with the test.
He hopes to be more than those from BiH
Similarly, they will have to be hosted by Bosnia and Herzegovina on Tuesday when it will be in Celje at 6pm. “This match will have a completely different starting point. I am glad we will be in Celje to keep the stadium full. I do not know how much their fans will be, but I hope it will not be their match, but that there will be more of our followers, « wished the Slovenian coach.
“Celje deserves this after all because of the spectacular season (the Celje people broke through the quarterfinals of the conference league), which also gave some players in this national team. I immediately got the question of whether we called them because we play in Celje. Well, against Luxembourg was the answer in the palm of your hand, « said Kek.
Again there will be some staff problems. “We’ll see how it will be. What will not change much. There is almost no chance of playing with the nest of Čerin, with the story that we already have to think wide. It is right that the minute is distributed in some way, but certainly matches with teams from the former common country are a special challenge, « explained the 63-year-old Maribor.
Regarding the possible cloud’s play on Tuesday, he replied: “Jan is a captain who shows the character. He settles on a plane, takes boys for dinner, encourages them … This month there is still a big challenge at the club World Cup, but if he is able to play, he will definitely play. «
But on the other hand, he also sent a warning to certain: « Some who have been ‘over the years’ and should help more have disappointed me. But that’s why it’s competition. This campaign with Luxembourg was fine, I hope we will be against BiH at the right level, as some had problems with physical fitness, « concluded Kek.
