Dominik regularly represents Austria in the youth games, and is currently one of the biggest stars in the U-17 team.

Quotes:

“On the same day at the morning, I was also watching Uefa Youth League (U19) match between the same teams. The final result was 3:0 for FK Austria. I think that this result was not a big surprise, because FK Austria have in team top young players like; captain Sascha Horvath, midfielder Peter Michorl and Dominik Prokop. My opinion is that they can be the surprise of the competition. In FC Porto team the best 2 players were; defender central Tomas Podstawski and strong striker Andre Silva.”
