Miha Zajc returned to Istanbul after leaving the national team camp and once again donned the club gear of Fenerbahçe, where the new coach Jose Mourinho quickly dismissed him upon his arrival. However, the Slovenian midfielder responded to the famous Portuguese coach in the best possible way.
Mourinho sat on the bench of his new club for the first time today in a match against Romanian first-division team Petrolul Ploiești and almost experienced a shock, if it weren’t for the former Olimpija player in his team. Mario Bratu scored the opening goal for the visitors, but before the end of the first half, the home captain Edin Džeko equalized.
Zajc got his chance right at the start of the second half and needed only ten minutes to make a serious impact and challenge the Portuguese coach. The 29-year-old masterfully executed a free-kick, securing victory for his team and saving his new coach from embarrassment.
It is also worth mentioning that the match was watched live by Acun Ilicali, the new investor in NK Maribor, who has been following the Slovenian midfielder for quite some time and was undoubtedly even more impressed by what he saw.
