They got into the draw for participation in the World Championships in Indonesia in much the same way as their Slovak peers. Austria had zero points in Slovakia after the first two losses in the B-group of the Under-19 European Championships in Slovakia, but it could still dream of participating in the world championship. However, they needed a full point gain in the “match for everything” against Serbia, which had a point in the draw for Israel.

The result was close and dramatic triumph 3: 2 at the SNP Stadium in Banská Bystrica, which moved our western neighbor to the barracks and the Serbs home.

“Victory over Serbia means a lot to us and also helped our self-confidence tremendously. Now we have a challenging match against a strong opponent, but we will leave everything on the lawn. “ declared the captain of Austria under the age of 19 Ervin Omič in an interview for the website of the Austrian Football Association oefb.at.

According to the captain of the Italian junior Juventus, Slovakia’s victory over the Romanians was almost the same as it was under Urpin. “It was something similar to what we experienced against Serbia, but the Slovaks will now be driven forward by a full stadium. However, I must say that the Slovaks certainly did not get into the barrage just by chance, “ Omič points out, but with one breath he adds: “We’ve been dreaming about this for years (that they will get to the World Cup) and now we have one step left to take – one victory. We can’t wait for the match. “

The Austrians don’t care that Slovaks will also have “doping allowed” on their side.

According to the pre-match assumptions, Austria will enter the match as a slight favorite, but according to the coach Martina Scherba no walk through the blossoming park awaits his charges, but rather a tough fight.

“Slovaks, like other teams, are technically very good at it, they can be tactically flexible, play in the body, as several of their players are already playing in the highest Slovak league, so ours is not expected to be easy at all, but we are looking forward to that we will play in such a big stadium, “ he admitted.

“After the victory over Serbia, we have very good feelings, because it was not easy for us to lose two matches in a row. That’s why the mood in the cabin was really fantastic and I believe that it gave the boys even more strength, thanks to which they will hopefully get as far as Indonesia. “ he wishes.

The coach of the Slovak opponent Scherb also thinks so: “Let’s hope that there will be more than 10,000 spectators and also that there will be Austrian fans. We are already looking forward to the match and this is exactly what we focused on before the start of the championship, ie that we win the participation in the World Cup. Now we have the opportunity ahead. We don’t care if there are so many fans against us, because we are already looking forward to this atmosphere. “

Captain Omič sees this in the same way: “We don’t do anything about it at all, but we’re already looking forward to it and it’s an honor for us to be able to play in front of so many fans. It will give us even more motivation. “
