The report adds that Oblak did not train with his teammates from Monday to Wednesday, but also did not return to Madrid. He spent these days in intensive therapy and fitness, but remained focused on being ready for Slovenia despite the numerous pains.

The media report also reminded the Slovenians that they only need a victory over Kosovo if they want to dream of a second place that would secure them a World Cup play-off spot.
Currently, Kosovo is ranked second and with a point in Ljubljana it would mathematically secure the World Cup play-offs. However, in case of victory it would then enter the race for direct qualification, of course if Sweden stops Switzerland.Telegraph/
