Slovakia ace Vladimir Weiss seeks repeat of shock pre-Euro 2016 win over Germany
Saturday, June 25, 2016 Source: Express.co.ukSLOVAKIA winger Vladimir Weiss is hoping lightning can strike twice against Germany.
The Slovaks stunned the world champions 3-1 in a warm-up friendly in Augsburg just three weeks ago.
Now they face off again in Lille on Sunday and Weiss said: "Germany have great quality and this will be a very demanding match, but we played them a few weeks back and won on their home ground. This gives us a lot of confidence for this match."
Slovakia's chances could be boosted by the absence of Bayern Munich defender Jerome Boateng (calf), who has played a major part in Germany yet to concede a goal in the tournament.
Germany captain Manuel Neuer said: "We are all well aware of Jerome's qualities and hope he can play. I am convinced he will take to the pitch."
