Germany vs Slovenia: Know All Match Details

The UEFA European Under-21 Championship gets underway with a fascinating Group B match as Germany U21 take on Slovenia U21 at the Stadion pod Zoborom. What an opening game this is expected to be between the team that is expected to win the tournament and a team that will stop at nothing to stamp their authority on the continent.

Germany U21 is coming into this championship with sterling credentials as they have gone unbeaten in their previous fifteen games. The young German side has been coached by manager Antonio Di Salvo to have an outstanding attacking silhouette and has proven to score goals with an outstanding regularity.

Their last preparation game was a morale-boosting 3-1 win against Spain U21 in which striker Nick Woltemade produced a magnificent hat-trick. This outcome has also strengthened the status of Germany as one of the main favorites of the tournament, as their team is composed of many Bundesliga veterans who are adding real professional experience to the match.

The defensive formation will be captained by Eric Martel, and the playmaker Paul Nebel should pull the strings in the center of the park as far as the attack is concerned. The German offensive team, led by Woltemade, has been averaging more than three goals in each game, and thus one can vouch for their strength in the forward line.
