Dejan Grabić disappointed and unhappy after first defeat on the Mura bench: “I will have to play harder, such goals are unacceptable”
Mura
took the lead and the scales seemed to have tipped in that moment. But Koper refused to give up. And it didn’t. He answered quite quickly and what an answer it was! The visitors scored two goals in three minutes, which was enough to celebrate their first win of the year in front of 1857 spectators. Meanwhile, Dejan Grabić had to face his first defeat as Mura coach. He was not glowing with satisfaction. Not by chance. Indeed, he was visibly disappointed and dissatisfied. But it’s also sharp.
“We were naive. With a 1-0 lead, to do such nonsense in front of your own goal is incomprehensible. It is one thing to have tactical discipline, it is another to make decisions when you need to be simple and focused. Too bad. The real result of the match was a draw, but the moment someone scores, the scales are supposed to tip in their favour. We pulled back then. I don’t know why, because that was not the plan. As a result, Koper was getting rebounds in the most dangerous areas and the visitors took advantage,” after the game for

Dejan Grabić, who replaced Damir Čontala in Murska Sobota not long ago, told SportTV.
Defending is the basics
Dejan Grabić, who had previously sat on the Brava bench, was even more tongue-in-cheek: “Now the analysis is upon us and obviously I will have to be more forceful. If we want to score points, we cannot score goals like this. We need to be more robust. We made a lot of things impossible for Koper, we were mostly exposed to shots from distance, which is better than against Gorica, where the opponent had clear chances. But we will still have to be better at defending, that’s the basics.“
