The Slovakia national football team represents Slovakia in international men's football games. It is managed by the Slovak Football Association (SFZ). Since 2019, their main home stadium is the Tehelné pole in Bratislava.

Before 1993, when Czechoslovakia split, Slovak players were part of the Czechoslovakia team. They also played as Slovakia during Second World War.

Since becoming independent in 1993, Slovakia has played in four big international tournaments. These include the 2010 FIFA World Cup, UEFA Euro 2016, UEFA Euro 2020, and UEFA Euro 2024. In the 2010 World Cup, they won their qualifying group and even beat Italy 3–2 in the group stage. They made it to the knockout stage before losing to the Netherlands. This was the first time the new Slovak team played in a major football event.

History of Slovak Football

Early Years and Czechoslovakia

The first official match for the first Slovak Republic was on August 27, 1939. They played against Germany in Bratislava and won 2–0. During the Second World War, Slovakia played friendly matches against countries that were allied with them.

After the war, the Slovak team joined the Czechoslovakia team. For over 50 years, Slovakia did not play as an independent country. Many Slovak players were very important for the Czechoslovak team. For example, most of the players who won the UEFA Euro 1976 were Slovak.

Slovakia Since 1994

Slovakia's first official international game after becoming independent again was on February 2, 1994. They won 1–0 against the United Arab Emirates in Dubai. Their first home game was a 4–1 win against Croatia in Bratislava on April 20, 1994.

Slovakia's biggest loss since independence was 6–0 against Argentina in 1995. Their biggest wins have been 7–0 against Liechtenstein in 2004, and twice against San Marino in 2007 and 2009.

Slovakia tried to qualify for a major championship for the first time in Euro 1996. They finished third in their group. In the 1998 World Cup qualifiers, they finished fourth. They won their first four games, including one against their neighbors, the Czech Republic. This helped them reach their highest FIFA World Ranking at the time, 17th.

2010 FIFA World Cup Journey

Slovakia played in the FIFA World Cup for the first time as an independent country in 2010. They won their qualifying group, beating teams like Slovenia and the Czech Republic. They secured their spot with a 1–0 win against Poland on October 14, 2009.

At the World Cup, Slovakia finished second in their group. They famously beat the reigning champions, Italy, 3–2. This exciting game had three goals scored after the 80th minute. This win sent Slovakia to the knockout stage and eliminated Italy. In the Round of 16, Slovakia played the Netherlands. They lost 2–1, with Róbert Vittek scoring a late penalty.

UEFA Euro 2012 and 2016

For the UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying, Slovakia had a tough time. They started with two wins but then struggled, finishing fourth in their group. This meant they did not qualify for the tournament.

Things changed for UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying. Slovakia started strong with a 1–0 win against Ukraine. They then had a surprising 2–1 victory over Spain. They finished second in their group and qualified for the European Championship for the first time as an independent nation.

At UEFA Euro 2016, Slovakia was in Group B with England, Russia, and Wales. They lost their first game to Wales 2–1, but Ondrej Duda scored Slovakia's first ever goal in the European Championship. They then beat Russia 2–1 and drew 0–0 with England. This allowed them to move to the Round of 16. There, they lost 3–0 to Germany.

Recent Tournaments

Slovakia did not qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. They finished second in their group but were not among the best second-placed teams to get a play-off spot.

They qualified for UEFA Euro 2020 after beating Northern Ireland. In Group E, they beat Poland 2–1. However, they then lost to Sweden 1–0 and were heavily defeated by Spain 5–0. This meant they were eliminated in the group stage.

For the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification, Slovakia finished third in their group. They dropped points against weaker teams like Cyprus and Malta.

UEFA Euro 2024 Success

After some difficult results, Francesco Calzona became the new coach on August 30, 2022. Slovakia was in a tough qualifying group for UEFA Euro 2024 with Portugal, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland, Luxembourg, and Liechtenstein.

After a draw in their first match, the team won seven games and lost only two, both to Portugal. This strong performance meant Slovakia automatically qualified for UEFA Euro 2024 by finishing second in their group.

At UEFA Euro 2024, Slovakia was in Group E with Belgium, Ukraine, and Romania. In a big surprise, Slovakia beat Belgium 1–0 on June 17. They made it to the knockout stage, where they faced England in the Round of 16. They lost 2-1 in extra time. Ivan Schranz was one of the top goalscorers of the tournament.

Home Stadiums

The Slovakia national football team plays its home games at the Tehelné pole in Bratislava and the Štadión Antona Malatinského in Trnava. The Štadión pod Dubňom in Žilina was used until 2015 but now has artificial grass. Other stadiums have also hosted games in the past.

Here are some of the stadiums where Slovakia has played home matches:

Team Identity

Nicknames for the Team

The team is often called Repre, which is short for Reprezentácia (meaning national team). In 2016, the Slovak Football Association gave the team a new nickname: Slovenskí sokoli (which means Slovak Falcons). Younger teams (U15 to U21) are called Slovenskí sokolíci (Slovak Little Falcons). Even though fans didn't use it much at first, it's now often used, especially in the media.

Team Kits

Slovakia kits from 1939 to 1945 era

Since 1993, Slovakia's home kit has mostly been blue. For a while, from 2020, it changed to white. Players usually wear all white or all blue jerseys, shorts, and socks. Sometimes, they wear a blue jersey with white shorts. Puma made the kits from 2012 to 2016. Then Nike took over, as they had before from 1995 to 2005. In 2024, the Italian brand Macron became the new kit supplier.
