Although he initially faced some difficulties moving to Latvia, Zoran Željković has now found the recipe for success and is truly dismantling everything in his path. The Ljubljana native, who previously managed Krka, Koper, and most recently Olimpija in Slovenia, is currently on a streak of 7 consecutive wins with Auda. Importantly, the Latvians with him at the helm have also overcome two obstacles in Europe. This represents by far the greatest international success in Auda’s history, which is only competing in Europe for the second time.
Auda first eliminated B36 Torshavn from the Faroe Islands in the first round of the Conference League qualifiers, and then defeated the Northern Irish club Cliftonville FC in the second round. Zoran Željković and his team celebrated in Belfast with a 2:1 victory and were also better on home soil. Auda won 2:0, advancing with an aggregate score of 4:1. There’s no doubt it’s an upset, as Cliftonville FC is significantly more experienced, having played 41 matches in Europe.
In the third round of qualifying, Auda will certainly not be without opportunities, as their opponent will be the Kosovar club Drita, which eliminated Icelandic Breidablik. Zoran Željković will first face the Kosovars at home.
