The fate may not be in their hands, but the players of NK Brinje Grosuplje have once again proved that they will make the most of every opportunity that arises in the battle for promotion to the Prva Liga Telemach. The latter is no longer directly accessible for the Dolenjci, but the door to the playoffs is still open.
NK Brinje Grosuplje hosted Krka in front of 200 spectators this time and won the Dolenjski derby 2-1, meaning Krka remains trapped in a fierce battle to avoid relegation from the 2. SNL. The home team took the lead already in the second minute when Aleks Stojaković found the net. In the 20th minute, Cucu, the league’s top scorer in the autumn, equalized with his first goal of the spring, but it wasn’t enough for Krka.
The thrilling match was decided only in the 92nd minute when Nik Zrnec turned into the hero of the home team. Only 20-year-old player of NK Brinje Grosuplje entered the game 10 minutes before, and then in injury time scored only his second goal in the 2. SNL, securing a precious victory for his team in the battle for the playoffs for the 1. SNL.
Krka is in 13th place on the 2. SNL standings, just one point ahead of Tabor, who drew with Gorica (2-2) on Saturday. In the next round, Krka will play at home against Bilje, while the hosts of this match will face Bistrica away.
Additionally, besides the Tabor – Gorica match (2-2) on Saturday, there was also a match between Bilje and Dravinja. Around 300 spectators watched the game, but they didn’t see any goals. The clubs ended in a goalless draw 0-0, both taking another step towards securing their place in the 2. SNL.
