The European Championship qualifying match between Slovakia and Luxembourg ended in a goalless draw, with both teams unable to break the deadlock throughout the game.
The match took place at the CITY ARENA - Štadión Antona Malatinského stadium and both teams were unable to convert their opportunities into goals. In the first half, both Slovakia and Luxembourg tried to find themselves in the match. Despite several shots on goal, neither team was able to score at halftime. In the second half, both teams made substitutions to try to breathe life into their game. Luxembourg received a yellow card in the 57th minute after L. Gerson committed a foul. Later in the 64th minute, Luxembourg made two substitutions: J. Borges Sanchez replaced L. Jans and M. Olesen replaced W. Till. Slovakia also made two substitutions in the 73rd minute: T.

Players from both teams gave their best effort throughout the game, but in the end they were let down by the finishing touches. The result means Luxembourg and Slovakia are in third and fourth place in their qualifying groups, respectively, and both teams still have a chance to qualify for the European Championship.
