Fitzel 'positive' about Malta's task

After naming an unchanged squad for next week's UEFA EURO™ qualifiers against Norway and Bosnia Herzegovina, Malta coach Dušan Fitzel remains "positive".

'Positive result'
Malta take on Norway in Oslo on 2 June before travelling to Sarajevo for a second consecutive away encounter against Bosnia Herzegovina four days later. "Norway and Bosnia Herzegovina will both be very difficult opponents," Fitzel told uefa.com. "Despite this, we are targeting at least one positive result from both matches." The Norway qualifier will have particular significance for Malta captain Gilbert Agius who will complete a century of appearances for his country in Oslo. "Playing your 100th international match for your country is really a proud moment to savour but the important thing is that we get good results from both games," Agius explained.
