In 2008, when Tomi Jurić was on the brink of his professional career, Kristjan Kozar had just been born. On Wednesday, both players found the back of the net in the round of 32 match in the Pivovarna Union Cup. The 16-year-old Kozar scored in the 48th minute, giving Koper a tough challenge against a 2. SNL club. Impressively, this was already his second goal at the senior level this season, adding to the ten goals he’s netted in the second cadet league.
Bilje only conceded to their favored opponent after extra time, with Tomi Jurić scoring the winning penalty. Interestingly, on the day of the cup match, you could read an interview with Tomi and his brother Deni on our website. If you missed it, it’s available here.
Jurić decided the Primorska showdown in the 94th minute, an hour after Isaac Matondo also scored for the visitors from Bonifika. Another hero for Koper was goalkeeper Luka Baš, who saved a penalty in the 110th minute from Croatian player Bruno Župan.
Bilje started the cup match with the lineup Drašček, Furlan, Gaberšek Rotovnik, Sudar, Koron, Solić, Kozar, Omoregie, Ermacora, Marinič, Gomizelj. Coach Žiga Pahor brought on Doplihar, Kovačević, Župan, Bjelkić, Koštić, and Majić. Oliver Bogatinov, Koper’s coach, opted for Baš, Ivkić, Lovrić, Jurić, Matondo, Curico, Simčić, Groznica, Petriško, Mijailović, Sidibe as the starting lineup, with El Manssouri, T. Jurić, Popović, Omladič, Mittendorfer, and Jovanović coming off the bench.
