After two well-played matches, two victories, and a goal difference of 7:1, Ilirija lost again in the youth Eon NextGen league. The defeat came at the hands of a team that broke a streak of three consecutive losses. NK Brinje Grosuplje was in high spirits in Šiška. The Dolenjci scored four goals and celebrated a 4:2 victory.
In front of 80 spectators, the visitors scored three goals in the first half, with Tevž Kušar (10′), Tin Jurić (17′), and Jošt Zajc (44′) all finding the back of the net. For much of the second half, it seemed like the yellow and blue would easily secure the win, but things started to get complicated near the end. Teo Jelača (77′) and Nace Lepoša (86′) brought the hosts back into the game, but it wasn’t enough. In the 88th minute, Mark Tomšič scored the fourth goal for the visitors, sealing the match.
Ilirija, currently seventh in the standings with 13 points, started the match with the lineup: Strmec, Nikolić, Kukavica, Matanović, Adrović, Ristić, Puc, Stojanov, Veber, Lepoša, Pantić. Coach Robert Kopčič tried to change the course of the match by bringing on Zorko, Casagrande, Letić, Jelača, and Ćosić. Urban Žohar, the coach of NK Brinje Grosuplje, fielded a starting eleven of Zrnec, Kušar, Grabljevec, Piškur, Vitamvas, Jurić, Tomšič, Plavac Marković, Lazarević, Zajc, and Gradišić. Substitutes Strnad, Zupanič, Plavčak, Krstić, and Šteharnik also featured. Dolenjci now have the same number of points as Ilirija (13) and are currently ninth in the standings.
