Slovakia Beat Malta in World Cup Qualifier, Hope for Additional Round

Trnava, October 8 (TASR) – A brace by Adam Nemec and one goal by Ondrej Duda secured a comfortable 3-0 victory for Slovakia over Malta in the 2018 World Cup qualifier in Trnava on Sunday, and as Slovenia draw 2-2 against Scotland, Slovaks leaped to the second place in Group F and can hope for an additional qualifying round in November.
