The 2024/25 season has kicked off in the under-15 and under-17 leagues, with the first round featuring a match between Koper and Maribor. The Primorci triumphed among the older boys, while the Štajerci emerged victorious among the cadets, with the under-17 game being particularly spectacular.
The match between Koper and Maribor’s under-17 teams was an incredible spectacle with 9 goals scored. Maribor claimed a narrow victory with a 5:4 result. The team is led this season by former top-tier player Marko Barun, who previously played for Olimpija. It was also a showcase of two of Slovenia’s most promising teenage talents: Arman Durmiši for Koper and Tian Nai Koren for Maribor.
Arman Durmiši, who is also playing for the senior team this season, made a notable appearance for the cadets. He scored two of Koper’s four goals, with Maks Ljubenović adding two more. Despite leading 4:1 after just over 50 minutes, Koper could not hold on for the win. The reason for this? Tian Nai Koren.
Robert Koren’s son scored the first goal for Maribor in the 21st minute and then struck again in the 78th and 83rd minutes to reduce the deficit to 3:4. He completed his hat-trick with a goal in the 99th minute (!) to secure a 5:4 victory. Koren scored his first two goals from the penalty spot, with Tai Primc also finding the net for Maribor. In summary, Koper led 4:1, but Maribor won 5:4. What a game!
In the older boys’ match, Koper won 2:1. The hosts took the lead in the 27th minute with a goal from Anže Grabljevec. Bine Cizerl equalized in the 40th minute, but in the 70th minute, his teammate Leo Pisar scored an own goal, ensuring that the three points stayed at Bonifika.
