Saturday started with a draw between Celje and Radomlje, continued with a hat-trick by the hot Zan Vipotnik in Nova Gorica and ended with a win
Koper
in a showdown with
Brava
. It was 1:0 for the hosts at Bonifiki after Ivan Novoselec scored the only goal of the game. Koper is 34. Minutes later, Bravo was without David Flakus Bosil due to two yellow cards. It was the third consecutive win for the Primorje team, while Bravo has been waiting for its first away league win since 26 August last year, when it defeated Tabor in Sežana.
That Bravo had some bad luck at Bonifiki is not far from the truth. David Flakus Bosilj was – hand on heart – quite strictly excluded. In the case of the second yellow card offence, it probably wouldn’t have been a bad thing if the referee had looked through his fingers. But Alen Bubek showed no mercy. He judged that the Bravo striker had hit his opponent in the face with his hand, showed him a second yellow card and sent him off the pitch.
Koper was already ahead. V 25. Matija Orbanić was on the scene in the first minute, after a header by Andrej Kotnik was deflected into the corner. Nikola Krajinovic crosses from the side, this time Ivan Novoselec shoots with his head in front of the goal and scores. Orbanić was not so convincing in the second, he could have prevented the goal. Six minutes later, Bravo was unlucky for the first time in the match. Tamar Svetlin shot from the left side of the penalty area, but was denied by the post.
The hosts, who were superior in the field, had the ball in their feet more and also had a lot more shots (17:7, 7:1 on goal), could have sealed the victory in the 83rd round. Rudi Požeg Vancas was all alone in front of Orbanić in the first minute, but still failed to beat him. With another victory, Koper stayed in the battle for Europe, while Bravo’s defeat gave them further confirmation that the fight for survival will be a tight one.
