U20 World Cup: Finally a 5:9 defeat against Slovenia

Nevertheless, the defeat against Slovenia hurts. Because if Italy had won the match, the home World Cup for the U20 team would have ended in third place. The young cracks ended up in fourth place.

The game started with a cold shower as Maver gave Slovenia the lead in the first minute. Although Alex Lambacher immediately equalized, Slovenia quickly moved ahead to 4-1. This led to Armand Pilon making way for Daniel Morandell in the Italy box. But even with Kalterer in goal, the hosts still conceded two goals. After 20 minutes it was 6:2 for Slovenia.

In the middle third, Morini and Lanziner scored two goals for the Blue Team, while the Slovenians only managed one goal. Before the final third there was hope that this U20 World Cup might end with a win. Hope that the neighbor from the small Alpine republic nipped in the bud in the final third. Zan Jezovsek's hat trick remains to be mentioned.

U20 World Cup: Finally a 5:9 defeat against Slovenia

Luckily, Kostner's team had already secured relegation at the U20 World Cup in Asiago before the last group game against bottom team Slovenia. This means that the 5:9 defeat in the Odegar Stadium was no longer significant.
