Although Olimpija was, truth be told, the better opponent, those in the Celje camp were more disappointed with the outcome after the match in Stožice. The reason is clear: they had the victory almost in their hands, but then conceded the equalizing goal a few minutes before the end of the game. Matjaž Rozman, the experienced Celje goalkeeper, was one of those who did not hide his disappointment, alongside coach Damir Krznar.
“We had a tough match behind us. The atmosphere was good, and I think we stood well on the field, capitalizing on the opportunities offered. In the end, we cheaply conceded a goal in a childish manner,” complained the 37-year-old Matjaž Rozman, who succumbed to a corner kick delivery and a diagonal shot by the home defender Marcel Ratnik, who placed his foot in the right spot at the right time.
“We made too many simple mistakes, but even before the match, we knew that only a victory counted this time, regardless of beauty. We were close until the last minute, but in the end, we gave them the chance to get back into the title race,” Matjaž Rozman lamented, among other things, but added in the end that Celje can still leave the Slovenian capital satisfied: “Despite everything, we still have a comfortable seven-point lead, and I believe we will bring it all to a successful conclusion, as it should be.“
