Maribor, on a streak of five consecutive victories, was already leading 3:0, with goals scored by Anej Dukarić (31), Tine Čuk (45), and Patrik Katič (50). Domžale reduced the high deficit in the 59th minute when Emils Evelons struck, and two minutes before the end, Denis Nikić also found the net. Domžale came close but remained too far away. However, it could have ended differently; in the 92nd minute of the match (!), Evelons hit the crossbar instead of the net.
The home coach, Dejan Dončić, opted for the lineup consisting of Tomažič, Kolednik, Poredoš, Kramberger, Lorbek, Silajdžić, Osterc (64′ Ristić), Katič, Grlić (64′ Antič Kurbus, 90′ Vogrinčič), Čuk, Dukarić. Domžale presented themselves in Štajersko with Matičič, Evelons, Bohinc, Hempt, Štefanec, Šerbec, Kranjčič (70′ Marinković), Duranovic, Malov, Bandur (76′ Salešević), Nikić.
