In the youth Eon NextGen league, the 8th round began on Friday, with Ilirija facing Krka in Ljubljana in front of 50 spectators. The teams were closely matched in points before the match, and had the Dolenjci claimed victory, they would have surpassed their opponents. However, they were quite far from success. Ilirija celebrated a convincing victory, and once again, one of the heroes for the Šiškarji was Eroll Šabanaj.
The former player of Bravo started only his second match of the season and repeated his feat from the previous round by scoring twice again. 2 matches, 4 goals, and Ilirija can smile, having won both encounters. This time, they triumphed decisively with a score of 4:0, currently sitting in a strong fifth place in the youth national championship standings.
Interestingly, all four of Ilirija’s goals came in the second half, which started dreamily for the home side. Eroll Šabanaj scored the first goal of the match in the 46th minute and added his second in the 78th minute, effectively deciding the match. But it wasn’t over yet. In the 78th minute, Tomas Puc confirmed his good form with his third goal of the season, and just three minutes later, Inas Kukavica celebrated his third goal as well.
Ilirija, having won three of their four home matches in the 2024/25 season, started the game with the lineup of Strmec, Nikolić, Kukavica, Matanović, Adrović, Šabanaj, Ristić, Puc, Stojanov, Pavlič, and Pantić, with Veber, Zorko, Letić, Bajc, and Ćosić also making appearances. The Dolenjci, who last won in the Eon NextGen league in April of last year, fielded an eleven of Hribar, Božič, Mitič, Judež, Sečen, Meze, Novak, Kržan, Kastelic, Katič, and Stojičić, with Mazreku, Zupanič, Vrlinič, Vidmar, and Hribar coming off the bench.
