photo by NZS: moment of the match against Slovenia
In the first two matches we recorded narrow defeats against the favorites Germany and France. Our players showed brave and combative play, but we lacked a bit of sporting luck for a favorable result. In contrast to the first two, in the last match we performed very poorly, with many mistakes in defense, resulting in a convincing defeat against the host Slovenia.
France is the winner of the group with the maximum number of points, thereby qualifying for the U17 European Championship in Estonia as well as the U17 World Championship in Qatar.
