Bravo enjoyed a great performance by a teenager: the young defender scored three goals and assisted two more
Bravo on Wednesday in
Pivovarna Union Cup
easily blew its rival off the field. Britof, who plays in the fourth Slovenian league, was expectedly no match for the Ljubljana team. They scored nine goals, the opening three in the first seven minutes of the match. The early goals put the floor under the feet of the Gorenjska team and Bravo had an even easier road to the more than expected victory.
Five different scorers registered goals for Bravo in the 9:0 win, the most notable of which was Gašper Vodeb. With his hat-trick, many thought that Bravo clearly has a talented young striker in its ranks, who will surely score more goals for the club in the future. Lower Šiška. All well and good, but Vodeb is not a striker. He is not even a binder. He is, believe it or not, a defender. We have already seen him in the Telemach First League as a central defender, but this time coach Dejan Grabić has given him the role of left wing-back. Vodeb more than made the most of the opportunity. He spent a lot of time in attacking actions, which was appropriate and expected for the quality of the opponent, and this suited him.
The first after less than one minute of play
Vodeb scored the first goal of the game already v 51. seconds of clearingwhen he kicked the ball into the net after a corner pass from a teammate. He scored again in 28. In the final minute, he was again in the right place at the right time in the penalty area. V 49. In the final minute, Britofe denied the goalkeeper with another accurate header. It is worth noting that Vodeb scored three goals himself and contributed to two of them with his penultimate assist. A performance for an excellent rating.
A Zasavian who was trained in Celje
Although Vodeb made his first steps on the professional football scene in the
Brava
, he is not a child of the club from Spodnje Šiška. The tall footballer (192 centimetres tall) moved to the Slovenian capital less than a year and a half ago from Celje. But he is not a Celjan, he is a Zasavian. He comes from Trbovlje, where he made his first football steps with Rudar. He has played eight games for Bravo so far, making his debut in the 2021/22 season. Grabić offered him a chance in the opening games of the season against Radomlje and Aluminij, but then he had to wait until April this year for his next appearance.
Enough for a first league appearance since August?
In the current competition year he has played in three matches, in 3., 4. and In Round 5, he got a chance against Olimpija, Domžale and Celje. Bravo lost all three games, and Vodeb was not in sight after that. Until the match with Britof and the performance, which certainly raised his credit in the eyes of the coach. Enough for a first league appearance after 12. this August? Everything will be clear on Saturday, when Bravo will play Radomlje at home in the Telemach First League.
