Comments:

Slovenia had now played more games at UEFA European Championship tournaments without recording a win than any other nation (drawn four and lost one). They had won one of their six games at the FIFA World Cup (1-0 versus Algeria in 2010). . They lost two of their ten games in Euro 2024’s qualifying Group H (won seven), when they finished level on points with Denmark. . Zan Karničnik’s only goal in his 29 previous international appearances came in the 4-0 Euro 2024 qualifier in San Marino in September 2023.

Comments:

This game was played in the background of Serbia’s rumoured threat to withdraw from the tournament. They were reported to be furious at the chanting against them during the previous day’s game between Croatia and Albania. . They had now drawn two of their 11 games so far in 2023-24 (won four). . Serbia avoided failing to score in consecutive games for the first time since June 2022.
