The last match of the 23rd round of the Prva liga Telemach was played in Spodnja Šiška. Bravo hosted Koper on their home turf, and the match ended goalless. In the first half, the home team had a penalty kick opportunity after a foul on Matic Ivanšek, but Bravo failed to convert the penalty. Koper’s goalkeeper, Jan Koprivec, made a crucial save, denying Milan Tučić‘s attempt. After the draw, Bravo is in 5th place in the national championship standings, with the same number of points as Koper, but the Primorci have one game in hand. Bravo’s coach, Aleš Arnol, expressed satisfaction after the game, emphasizing the challenging schedule for his team.
“In my opinion, the final result is absolutely realistic. Neither we nor Koper created any serious opportunities. If I’m not mistaken, there were no shots on target in the first half… However, it’s a pity for the missed penalty. Despite everything, I repeat – the result is fair,” emphasized Aleš Arnol after the clash with Aleksandar Radosavljević‘s team.
Aleš Arnol: “Happy that they endured it all”
The coach of Ljubljana’s team continued: “Maybe it could have gone one way or the other, but the crucial point is what we didn’t want to emphasize too much before the game: Koper prepared for the match in peace for eleven days, while we played three games in eight days. We played away in Maribor on Thursday, played against Celje here on Sunday, and now Koper. I am really happy that the players endured all of this. All substitutions were aimed at that. Who will endure how much… We showed a real team performance and earned one more point than we deserved. I am happy because it speaks to the stability in the team and the right competitive character.”
Aleš Arnol then touched upon the grueling schedule again: “Koper came to the match in maximum readiness, while we were not in the best shape yet. Now we are genuinely pleased to return to a more normal work rhythm. The guys will be able to recover and regenerate until the end, and then, of course, everything depends on good training.” Bravo’s next match will be on Sunday, away against Radomlje.
