Nik Podlesnik, a 16-year-old forward from Maribor, secured a draw for Slovenia in the second friendly match against the U17 national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The team led by coach Muamer Vugdalić lost the opening match in Zenica 3-0, but the second game ended in a 1-1 draw.
The hosts, guided by coach Admir Raščić, a former player of Belakrajina, were the better team in the first half and took the lead in the 33rd minute when Kerim Alajbegović, a player of the German club Bayer Leverkusen, scored from a well-executed free-kick. Slovenia secured the draw before the end of the first half when Nik Podlesnik found the net after a quick action by Vugdalić’s team.
The U17 team played the second game in Zenica with the following lineup: Benjamin Matičič, Jan Jurgec (60th Niko Osterc), Anej Koroša (46th Žan Petrovič), Dušan Vukelič (46th Mark Kerin), Mark Apollonio (46th Alin Kumer Čelik), Enej Kramberger (72nd Timothy Dassena Ček), Žan Luka Žužek (72nd Flavio Junčaj), Denis Videnovič, Arman Durmiši (60th David Pejčić), Nik Podlesnik (60th Alban Veselaj), Benjamin Adrovič (31st Maj Blažič).
It’s worth mentioning that the U17 team managed to secure a draw despite finishing the match with one player less after Flavio Junčaj received a red card in the 83rd minute. The Domžale player entered the game just 11 minutes before and received two yellow cards in a short period, leading to an early exit from the field.
