Is the title already conceded? Is the battle for the 2nd place beginning? Despite leading twice, Olimpija’s footballers at the Stožice Stadium only managed to draw against Radomlje

Today’s day in the Slovenian national championship concluded in the capital, specifically in Stožice, where Olimpija hosted the team from Radomlje, currently positioned last in the league before the match, and experienced a major setback. A setback that almost certainly robbed them of their last realistic chances of winning the title and a setback that could potentially see them overtaken for the second place by the hot Maribor team, which has been almost exclusively winning lately.
Not even the first ten minutes had passed when the net of the millers was already shaking. Diogo Pinto found Ivan Durdov in the penalty area, who, despite some clumsiness, managed to put the ball behind Emil Velić. The Dragons increased their lead twice in the 12th and 14th minutes, but both goals were later disallowed for offside. However, the guests ensured the teams went to halftime with an equal scoreline, in the 38th minute, when Matej Malenšek scored into the empty net after Matevž Vidovšek’s intervention.
Upon their return from the locker room, Olimpija’s footballers didn’t have to wait too long for another goal, as they were awarded a penalty in the 54th minute after Uroš Korun‘s handball, successfully converted by captain Timi Max Elšnik. However, the Ljubljana side couldn’t maintain this lead until the end of the match either, as Radomlje’s footballers equalized for the second time in the 78th minute, this time with a header from Gaber Dobrovoljc after a corner kick.
Tomorrow, at the Bonifika Stadium, where Koper and Aluminij will face off, the last match of the 30th round of the Prva Liga Telemach will be played.
