Werder's junior internationals remained on their run of success as Lennart Thy and Florian Trinks (both German U20s) as well as Florian Hartherz (German U19) and Aleksandar Ignjovski (Serbian U21) all topped their respective groups with their national teams.
Lennart Thy, who was subbed in after 31 minutes, scored one goal in the German U20 national team's 4-1 victory over Switzerland on Sunday in Pfullendorf. The Germans have 12 points to lead their table ahead of Switzerland (six points) and Italy (three). The Germans with coach Frank Wormuth next take on Poland - zero points - on 12 November.
Without Florian Hartherz, the German U19s on the weekend picked up their second victory in two games. After beating qualification tournament hosts Northern Ireland 5-1 - in which Hartherz played 72 minutes - the Germans and coach Horst Hrubesch beat Montenegro 2-0 in Lurgan to qualify for the final round in spring 2012. The final group match on Tuesday 11 October 2011 at 1 p.m. against Belarus in Portadown is therefore meaningless.
Aleksandar Ignjovski played the entire 90 minutes in helping the Serbian U21 team to a 1-1 draw last Friday in Macedonia. With the point, "Iggy" and company defended their lead ahead of Denmark, against whom Serbia plays on Tuesday at 3 p.m.
