Bravo can no longer be champion, Maribor neither – in the tense battle for victory in the cadet championship, only two clubs remain. Olimpija achieved a valuable victory away against Bravo on Saturday and heads into the final round from the top spot. However, the destiny is still in the hands of Celje. The young Celje team is trailing behind Ljubljana’s team by just one point in the U17 league. And if they defeat Olimpija in the last round, which will take place in 14 days… Then it will be their second title of the season.
Celje’s cadets hosted Šenčur at home on Saturday and easily defeated them 4-0. Around 70 spectators watched the match, witnessing a much-improved performance by the home team. Alban Veselaj put them ahead in the 2nd minute, after which Kenan Kurtović took the stage in the second half. The former member of Koper secured a hat-trick, scoring in the 48th, 64th, and 77th minutes. As mentioned, Celje is in 2nd place in the cadet league standings, trailing by just one point behind the leader, while Šenčur is twelfth.
The situation was even worse for the Gorenjci in the U15 category, where Celje celebrated an impressive 8-0 victory! The home team, currently sixth, was led to a significant victory by Anej Koprivc (8, 37), Uroš Savić (17), Aleksander Lev Čanković Peternelj (21), Gal Dolničar (27), Tian Čaušević (40), Emran Forić (68), and Alen Balagić (72). Šenčur is in 10th place in the standings of the older boys’ league.
