Malta U-19 to meet Hungary U-17 in friendly matches
The new Malta Under-19 National Team will start their international experience with two friendly matches at the MFA training grounds, Ta’ Qali.
Coach Branco Nisevic, assisted by Manuel Farrugia, selected a 27-man squad from 12 different teams, including the Italian side Livorno.
As is usual in such friendly matches, several players will be made use of in order to be given the necessary exposure at a higher level, particularly against foreign national teams. This will enable the coaches to assess the potential of the players under their charge.
Both matches have a 6.30 pm kick-off time. Maltese FIFA Referee Clayton Pisani, assisted by William Debattista and Paul Apap will control the first match, while Kevin Azzopard (FIFA Referee), assisted by Ingmar Spiteri and Mitchell Scerri, will take charge of the second.
