No sooner had he arrived than he had to take his first seat on the bench of his new club. But Albert Riera is used to having new opportunities in his life come to him at the drop of a hat. But if a year ago he made his debut on the Olimpija bench with a league win over Mura, this time he was not exactly beaming with satisfaction.
Celjani
were on the road at the new
Aluminij
only drew (2:2). Kidrians were leading twice, but remained winless in 88. minutes.

Albert Riera got his first header after just four minutes, when Celjani made a capital defensive mistake. David Zec crossed blindly in front of his own penalty area, but the ball was delivered straight to the feet of Sandro Jovanovic. The former Velenje Rudar player made the most of the gift and beat Matko Obradović in front of a hesitant Klemno Nemanič. Celje could have equalised in 18. Aluminij came close to celebrating again after half an hour of play, when Aljoša Matko was not accurate enough. Marko Brkljača shot after a pass from Gašper Jovan, but only hit the crossbar.

Daniel Skiba ‘s goal just before half-time was disallowed for offside and Celje equalised on 59. minutes. Newcomer Mario Kvesić penetrated through the middle, then with a good pass he “ripped apart” the Aluminija defence. Matko ran towards the goal alone, was in a slightly difficult position to shoot, but still put the ball behind Tibor Banić’s back with a diagonal attempt.

When Aluminij was in the 80s. The home team regained the lead in the first minute ( Jakov Katuša scored with a brilliant shot from more than 20 metres after a pass from Marko Brest ), but they were confident that the victory would stay at home. But this was not the case. The favoured visitors escaped in 88. minute, just before the break, when Luka Bobičanec saved Riera from defeat. The Croatian player’s goal was also a real treat, after a pass from a teammate, he headed the ball under the crossbar with a masterfully timed shot and ensured that the two teams drew 2:2.
