We admit, such European weeks are hard to remember. Clearly, there have been better, more successful, and more prominent ones, but the question is whether we’ve ever seen a collectively more successful Slovenian week in Europe. This one was truly exceptional; in four matches, Slovenian clubs did not lose a single game! They recorded three wins and achieved a goal difference of 6:1!
➡️ Celje – Slovan 1:1
➡️ Olimpija – Polisja 2:0
➡️ Maribor – Universitatea 2:0
➡️ Zrinjski – Bravo 0:1
Olimpija and Maribor have taken a big step towards advancing to the third round of Conference League qualifications, while Bravo defied all predictions with a surprising win at Zrinjski. The only slight disappointment was Celje, which failed to defeat the more than beatable Slovan, although it is clear that despite the 1:1 draw in Bratislava, it will still “sting.”
Adding to all this is the fact that Celje did make it through the first round of Champions League qualifications and that Maribor’s narrowly lost battle in Europa League qualifications against Botev is a minor “blunder,” so Slovenian football continues to enjoy very pleasant moments even after Euro 2024.
