Strelec suffers cruel blow as friendly ends in a draw

Slovakia suffered an injury blow in their 1-1 draw against Bulgaria in their last home game before the European Championships as David Strelec was stretchered off in the final minutes and will miss the tournament.

The 20-year-old came on in the latter stages of the game and injured his thigh muscle, causing heartbreak for the forward, who will miss the upcoming Euros.

Strelec scored nine goals and added four assists in his 25 games in the Slovakian league, helping Slovan Bratislava win their third straight title.


The squad

Veteran playmaker Marek Hamsik, Hertha Berlin defender Peter Pekarik, Parma midfielder Juraj Kucka and attacking midfielder Vladimir Weiss were all named in the squad. They all featured in Euro 2016, where Slovakia reached the knockout stages.


The match

Slovakia were held to a draw on Tuesday evening, coming from behind to draw the game 1-1.

Bulgaria started brightly and nearly went ahead after six minutes when Kiril Despodov headed against the crossbar. Three minutes later, they did go ahead.

Atanas Iliev opened the scoring in the ninth minute for Bulgaria after a defensive error. It was his first ever goal for Bulgaria in his fourth cap.

In the 27th minute, Slovakia equalised after a neat move that saw Lรกszlรณ Bรฉnes find the corner with a left-footed shot.

There were many changes at half-time and during the second half and the game lost its rhythm. Slovakia dominated the ball but they were unable to breach the Bulgaria defence for a second time.
