Moerstedt scores for Germany U19s

The Germany U19s were barely four minutes into their EURO qualifying match against Slovenia when Max Moerstedt celebrated for the first time: Noah Darvich slotted home following a cross to make it 1-0 to Germany. And Moerstedt added his name to the scoresheet shortly afterwards: the TSG forward completed the scoring in a 2-0 win in the 15th minute. The win means coach Hanno Balitsch's team have got off to the perfect start to the second phase of EURO qualifying. Moerstedt & Co. will host Finland's U19s on Saturday, before visiting the Ireland U19s on Tuesday.

A highlight awaits Oliver Baumann on Thursday. The TSG goalkeeper will be Germany's No. 1 shot-stopper in the match against Italy. The 34-year-old will be between the sticks in both the first and second legs of the quarter-final.

Andrej Kramarić will also be in Nations League quarter-final action with Croatia, who will face France in a repeat of the 2018 World Cup final. Lúkas Petersson will play for Iceland against Kosovo, while David Jurásek will represent Czechia against the Faroe Islands on Thursday.
