Headcount for Cyprus vs Slovenia

For this rally, the coach has decided to do without experienced Alexandrou (34 years), Laban (33 years) and Christofi (29 years). Only 5 elements present evolve outside the national championship. They are defenders Demetriou (Southend United), Laifis (Standard Liège) and Sielis (Gangwon, South Korea), young midfielder Katsanos (Juventus) and striker Sotiriou (Copenhagen). The latter is the main offensive asset of this selection.
Inescapable for many years in selection, Bostjan Cesar (101 caps) and Valter Birsa (90 caps) announced their international retirement. It is also important to highlight the absence of the goalkeeper of Atlético Madrid Jan Oblak. The coach is expected to rely heavily on defender Jokic (Ufa, Russia), Kurtic (SPAL), Khrin (Nantes), Kampl (Leipzig) and Verbic (Dynamo Kiev) and striker Matavz (Vitesse). Note the presence of Saint-Etienne Robert Beric.
