Jean scored a goal that could have been the winning one, but his team lacked a few seconds
Defender Slovenian national team Zhan Karnicnik recognized as the best player of the match Serbia (1:1) in the second round of group C at European Championship 2024.
The right wingback spent the entire match on the field and in the middle of the second half became the hero of the episode: when Serbia, with the score 0:0, rushed to attack in large numbers, it was Jean who dispersed the counterattack and finished it at the far post after Timi Elshnik’s cross.
The Slovenes were only a few seconds away from victory. The last corner, which was taken by goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic, ended with a pass to the head of Luka Jovic, who slipped away from Karnicnik and snatched a point for his team.
Slovenia drew 1:1 for the second time in a row. Serbia, having scored the first goal and scored the first point, retains its chances for the playoffs after two rounds. The head-on will be its confrontation with Denmark in the third round.
Today in this group the Danes will play against England, kick-off at 19:00.
