Damir Krznar doesn’t understand how Maribor players allowed their opponents to do the very thing he warned them about before the game
As long as they honestly believed they could knock Olimpija off the top of the standings
Telemach First League
, they played as if in a trance and beat everyone in front of them. Now that it is clear that Olimpija will not give up first place to anyone else, Maribor has fallen. This has been more than evident in the last few games. It worked against Bravo, but not anymore against Radomlje. Damir Krznar was also disappointed after this match. Not exactly furious, as was the case in Spodnja Šiška, but dissatisfied.
“On the basis of the above, we certainly cannot be satisfied. We did a lot to win in the attacking phase, but wasted 3, 4 really big chances. We felt sorry for going into the game too lightly, playing too slowly and letting Radomlje have the middle of the park, through which they hurt us, even though we knew they were the strongest in the midfield in terms of combinations,” is for

They scored a goal
The Croatian expert continued.The analysis during the preparation for the game showed that Radomlje have the highest percentage of attacks through the middle of the pitch of all the teams in the league, which requires a lot of skill and is really surprising. We gave them a goal, then we managed to come back and create a lot of chances. We should have decided the game in the first half, but we didn’t. In the second, we had the initiative, but not with enough concrete and decisive power as in the first, to win in the end..”
Maribor finished the game with one more man on the floor, but Damir Krznar and his players couldn’t use that to their advantage. “Radomlans closed in and crowded the space even more, we didn’t come up with the right chances anymore. We didn’t take advantage of the numerical advantage because we rushed too much after their red card. We can be satisfied with the number of opportunities, but not with the efficiency. We only won one point, three were on offer. What we did in the playoffs suited our opponents. We were lifting the ball in the air, which is not our weapon. The hosts did better, but we couldn’t calm down and concentrate enough. I believed that with a player more and a technically better team, we would still do more and achieve our goal,” added 50-year-old Damir Krznar.
Three more matches on Sunday
Let’s add that the last three games before the national team break will be played on Sunday in the First Telemach League. 13. The battle between Brav and Gorica will start at 10:00, and two hours later Tabor and Koper will be in the hunt for points.
