Huuhkajat lost to Slovenia 0–3.
Lukas Hradecky
Leverkusen
Neither of Benjamin Šeško’s finishes was impossible to save. The keeper slipped in even though Luke got his glove on the ball. The third was already too difficult even for the skipper. Hradecky would have needed a couple of game savers.
Nikolai Alho
Volos
Helplessly left out of the game. Slovenia removed the Huuhkajie’s flanks, which made Alho a bystander to the events on the field. The man should have had more good crosses.
Arttu Hoskonen
Krakow
Hoskonen’s potential comes out better now, when he has the patience to stick to simple solutions. An important block on Andraž Šporar’s move in the second period.
Robert Ivanov
Brunswick
A poor opening pass backfired as the opening goal, and invited Šeško to drive through in the second. Although the difficult field certainly hindered ball control, these mistakes should not have happened.
Leo Vaisänen
Austin FC
Toppar’s clumsiness backfired harshly, when in the situation it would have been enough to stay upright. After the break, Väisänen went straight to the opening. Did not redeem the credit extended to him.
Jere Uronen
Charlotte
Experience and toughness were trump cards on the uneven grass of the Stožice stadium. Replaced the injured Ilmari Niskas well and flashed his danger in the attacking direction as well.
Jere Uronen replaced the injured Ilmari Niska in Ljubljana. PDO
Glen Kamara
Leeds
Was in an ungrateful position in the opening period because his teammates couldn’t get him a game tool. You came out much better in the second episode. At times drifted into too tight places with the ball.
The further the match progressed, the better Glen Kamara got into it. PDO
Rasmus Schuller
Djurgården
It was sacrificed at the break because Huuhkajat needed an extra pulse in the attacking direction. Remained a statistic in the midfield positional war. You have to be able to do better.
Kairinen too
Sparta Prague
I only warmed up to the fight in the second episode. It is difficult to say whether the home team also gave more line then or whether Kairinen was able to guard its territory better.
Kaan Kairinen has become Finland’s most important playmaker. PDO
Benjamin Källman
Krakow
It was a mistake to choose the top. Finland would have needed a different type of player already in the opening period. Huffed and puffed as usual, but couldn’t threaten Slovenia’s goal.
Teemu Pukki
Minnesota
Pukki is Finland’s most experienced player, but even he couldn’t calm the emotions of his teammates in a moment of need. Got into the game better in the second period, and kept the white shirts on their toes.
Daniel Håkans
Vålerenga
Oh, why don’t you put the ball in? Håkans missed Huuhkajie’s best goal chance by far. Sure, it goes down in the stats as Jan Oblak’s ghost save. The speed and desire came out well in the last four-hitting.
Joel Pohjanpalo
Venice
Showed right away what Huuhkajat was missing in the opening period. Jolle tripled the danger of the away team with his cunning and football intelligence. A manager who should be on the field all the time.
Marcus Forss
Middlesbrough
The last quarter on the field was not enough to show power runs. The Boro striker was eager to play. Would there be a longer clip available on Tuesday?
