The internationals are on their way. A European Championship ticket is at stake for Pawel Bochniewicz during this period. Simon Olsson, Nathan Tjoe-A-On and Oliver Braude made their debuts. Thom Haye can do that later.
Thursday March 21, 10:39 PM:
Simon Olsson has made his debut for Sweden. The midfielder from SC Heerenveen arrived fifteen minutes before the end during the practice match against Portugal. It was no longer exciting then, because the Southern Europeans were ahead 5-1 at that moment. In the ninetieth minute the score became a little more bearable. Gustaf Nilsson scored the second goal for the away country.
Thursday March 21, 10:34 PM:
Pawel Bochniewicz can continue to hope for a European Championship ticket, although he did not play during the play-off against Estonia. From the bench, the defender saw his compatriots win 5-1. Przemyslaw Frankowski gave Poland the lead in minute 22 and five minutes later there was another boost for the home country. The visitors had to continue with one man less because of a red card. After the break, Poland finished ahead, meaning the team will play the all-deciding match against Wales next week. The winner of that match will qualify for the final tournament next summer.
Thursday March 21, 10:05 PM:
Oliver Braude was with Norway’s Under-20s in recent international matches, but now he made his first appearance in the Young Team. He made his debut with a victory over the Netherlands, which was defeated 1-2 in the Goffert Stadium. The right back of SC Heerenveen played in the second half. Both teams scored before halftime. Already in the first minute, Joel Mugisha gave the visitors the lead, after which Ruben van Bommel equalized after fifteen minutes. The winning goal came ten minutes after the break from Andreas Schjeldedrup.
Thursday March 21, 9:54 PM:
Hussein Ali won 1-0 against the Philippines. The match seemed to end without goals for a long time, although the right back of SC Heerenveen was very close to a goal. Just before the break he tried to score a goal, but his long shot ended up on the post. In minute 84, Iraq was still allowed to cheer. Muhanad Ali provided the deserved win. The home country was in control and had more than eighty percent possession of the ball.
Thursday March 21, 7:52 PM:
Loizos Loizou was important for Cyprus, which drew 1-1 against Latvia. On the island, the winger hired by SC Heerenveen provided the assist for Ioannis Pittas’ opening goal. For a long time it seemed like it would be the winning goal. In the first half the visitors missed a penalty, but five minutes before regular time ended, Loizou and his teammates still conceded a goal. At that moment the winger had already been substituted. He participated for 62 minutes.
Thursday March 21, 4:28 PM:
Nathan Tjoe-A-On can officially call himself an Indonesian international. The defender, who is on loan from Swansea City by SC Heerenveen, started today in the home match against Vietnam and participated in one half. In the second half, Egy Maulana Vikri provided the 1-0 lead, which was immediately the final score. Thom Haye was in the stands. He was not yet eligible to play.
