The goals for Celje were scored by Armandas Kučys in the 3rd minute, Ivan Brnić in the 65th minute, and Svit Sešlar in the 79th minute. After the match, coach Albert Riera praised his team’s performance.
“Congratulations to the boys for this win. They believed in the plan and the style of play. They understood that success is easier to achieve with control and dominance. Today, we had everything under control, and I think this is the right approach. I’ve been emphasizing all week that we are in a good moment and on the right path. The most important thing is that the players feel it and believe in it. We must continue like this. We’re still at the beginning, so we cannot afford to rest on the back of these well-played matches. Even with the score at 3-0, we wanted to keep playing and keep searching for more goals – that’s the only proper approach. We are happy with the three points, which bring us closer to the top of the standings,” the Spanish coach said after the match by the Kamniška Bistrica.
Albert Riera also touched on the pitch conditions in Domžale: “This time we played on an excellent pitch, which suits us very well. I’ve mentioned before that we would score more goals and create more dangerous chances on better surfaces. However, I must stress that we need to adapt to all conditions and always work hard, as that will reward us in the end.”
