Serbia u21 got the new manager and this is a great chance for him to bring confidence into the young team and promote those youngsters in a good light. It will be hard to qualify for Euro21 next year, but not impossible! A win is ultimatum here for my side.
Serbia is in fifth place in qualifying Group H with four points from the same number of matches. After one point won in the September cycle (defeat by Ukraine at home 0:1 and a draw with Northern Macedonia 0:0), the first victory followed, over Armenia in Yerevan (4: 1) after a big turnaround in the finish of the match. In the previous round, young Eagles were defeated by strong France u21 in Belgrade (0:3). The Faroe Islands u21 are in fourth place with five points. Visitors have won all their points so far at home: they defeated Armenia (2: 0) and drew with Northern Macedonia and France (1: 1), which is certainly a surprise in this group in the previous part of the qualifications. In the previous match, F.Islands were defeated by Ukraine in Zaporizhia (0:1).
After a weak start at the start of the qualifications, the previous manager of Serbia u21 Zvonko Zivkovic agreed with the Football Association of Serbia to terminate the contract. He is replaced by Aleksandar Rogić, who has rich coaching experience. Rogić was the coach in the professional staff of Radomir Antić in the national team of Serbia, which participated in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. For a while, he was also the coach in the professional staff of the Ghana national team, when the selector was Goran Stevanović. With the arrival of Dick Advokat as the coach of Serbia in 2014, Rogić joined the professional staff, with the task of planning activities, trainings, and matches, as well as analyzing the opponent's game.
Serbian u21 team have a positive score with Faroe Islands. In the qualifications for the European Championship in Israel in 2013, the Serbian team recorded two victories: on September 6, 2011, it was 5:1 in Serbia, and in Torshavn, it was 0:2 on June 5, 2012. With so many interesting names in the squad and a new coach at the desk, fresh energy should bring the results. I feel this gonna be a good game for my side and 2-0 or 3-0 are predicted results as this coach also loves clean sheets (not to concede a goal).
