World Cup correspondents: Slovenia

This is Slovenia's first ever World Cup, and the nation is confident of success.

Jan Kusej works in Nottingham's twin city of Ljubljana in Slovenia. He assesses the chances of the World Cup first-timers.

Jan Kusej Vujinovic - Slovenia
How is your country preparing for the World Cup?
I think quite well. Government in collaboration with Football Association of Slovenia and Slovene Tourist Board. Is working on press center, programming promotional materials, events, preparing shirts, caps, flags for Slovene football fans, etc. Many fans have sold their cars and other valuable objects just to be able to fly to Korea and Japan to support their heroes. Fans are, not counting our players, THE pride of the country since Euro 2000. On Euro 2000 they have become a shining example to other fan groups. Everybody in Slovenia have great expectations. Of course there are sceptics and cynics, but they are in minority. Majority is optimistic. Our WORLD is IN MOTION everything is moving toward Korea. 'SLOVENIJA GRE NAPREJ' ? SLOVENIA MOVES ON.
How do you think Slovenia will do in the World Cup?
They will definitively win the World Cup 2002.
Who's your best player and why?
I think Zlatko Zahovic stays the most popular, paid and also the best (MVP) player on our side. That's what I think.
What do you think to the England side?
They are one of the greatest teams in the world (long European football tradition). I hope that Beckham's foot will be ready, so he will be ready to confront Aleksander Knavs when Slovenia and England will meet each other in finals.
Where will you be watching the matches?
I am one of those contemporary space traveller. They mostly use REMOTE CONTROLS and INTERNET but I do expect that until WC 2002 TELEPORTING will be widely accessible.
