At Euro 2024, Bijol and Lovric had a reason to celebrate as Slovenia reached the last 16 of the tournament. The 0-0 draw with England was enough to secure them a spot in the knockout stage for the first time in their history. Sandri Lovric and Jaka Bijol played key roles in this historic achievement, with Jaka putting in a strong defensive display in his third start of the tournament.
While Bijol and Lovric were celebrating, Lazar Samardzic experienced disappointment as Serbia finished bottom of their group with only two points. Despite this, Samardzic was able to enjoy the excitement of making his full debut for the national team during the tournament.
Overall, it was a mixed bag of emotions for the Slovenian and Serbian players at Euro 2024, but a reason for pride and celebration for Bijol and Lovric as they advanced to the last 16 of the competition.
