Koman Coulibaly
A few sentences about how slovenia benefitted from the controversial call by Koman Coulibaly should be included in the section about the 2010 World Cup. Right now all that is included is table of the standings. Based on precedent from other articles ( see Colombia ), notable events from the world cup are included. The columbian page includes the story about Escobar's own goal. It makes sense to include something about Coulibaly in the page because he is a big part in why slovenia got a draw in the 2nd match against USA. If someone who didn't remember the game comes to this article and sees that Slovenia has 4 points in the group stage already, they would instantly wonder how they managed to get a draw against the USA. Their curiosity would be answered immediately if the explanation about Coulibaly is in there. Further, it is the most notable event for the slovenian football team. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dfourni (talk • contribs) 23:48, 19 June 2010 (UTC)


 * The situation is seen as controversial as the US player hit the ball in the net even though the wistle of the main referee was heard clearly almost at the same time the freekick and the cross to the box was taken. About two seconds later the ball was kicked in the goal. If the player would stop playing when the game was stoped and wouldn't kicked the ball into the net there would be no 'controversy'. On columbian page the Escobar's own goal is mentioned because that costed him his life as he was killed due to that goal.Ratipok (talk) 15:37, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

1921 match
Is there any information about the June 23, 1921, match against France? I am most interested in the line-ups. The only information I found was at NZS. I´ll try to see if there is any mention of the match in the Politika archives.

Also, I used one website which had digitalised the Slovenian newspappers from the pre-WWII period and it was possible to get match reports of the Yugoslav League and the Ljubljana Subassociation leagues. I was just going to see if I could get any info from the match agaist France in them (was certainly included in most daily´s of June 24, 1921, but I see the links are now gone ([urn:NBN:SI:DOC-36WZF40I.pdf exemple]). Does anyone know where those newspappers are now? FkpCascais (talk) 15:21, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

First match
In World Football Elo Ratings there is counted a match against Croatia on 19 June 1991. Was this match official? Svartner (talk) 23:51, 21 June 2021 (UTC)


 * It cannot be, not only both Slovenia and Croatia joined FIFA only in 1992, but when the match took place the countries were not even independent yet (both countries decalered independence one week after the match, on 25th June 1991), so it cannot be official by default. And this website doesnt have any reliability, its just some fan-made rankings that are based on the chess system. Snowflake91  (talk) 09:28, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

"fb|SVN" template
All FIFA national team pages use the "fb|XXX" template, why not here? PNwood213 (talk) 18:17, 9 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Because its a redirect, "🇸🇮 slovenia" adds a link to Slovenia national football team, so why would use a template instead of simply "🇸🇮 Slovenia" as the outcome is exactly the same? Snowflake91  (talk) 18:32, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree, it is the same but just thinking it is better to keep all pages the samePNwood213 (talk) 19:29, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * if good for 1 team page should be good for all team pages???Tomrtn (talk) 02:27, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
