Nations League
Austria rivals Slovenia win 1-0 in Kazakhstan
Slovenia have claimed a favorite victory in Kazakhstan in the Austria group of the Nations League!
Jan Mlakar scored in the 55th minute in Almaty on Sunday to secure a 1-0 away win for the Slovenians. Coach Matjaz Kek's team thus moved past Austria into second place in the table behind Norway for the time being.
Kazakhstan managed to keep the first half balanced and Amat Aimbetov hit the top of the crossbar (17'). After the break, however, the visitors went ahead. Mlakar latched onto the ball on the edge of the box and fired under the crossbar.
Benjamin Sesko, who had scored four goals in the Nations League, missed the preliminary decision, Slovenia's star striker only hitting the bar (63'). The Kek team then defended their lead over time without any problems. Professional strikers Tomi Horvat and Jon Gorenc Stankovic were missing for Slovenia due to injuries.
The Slovenians will face Norway at home in the fifth round on November 14, before a final away game in Austria three days later.
