Marcos Tavares ensured a big turnaround in the 2. SML East: Bistrica defeated Fužinar, now Ptuj’s Drava is in first place
While the Interblock players have already secured advancement in the youth Eon NextGen league in the west, there is a real drama unfolding in the east. Until the end of last weekend, Fužinar led the standings but had to relinquish the top spot to Drava two rounds before the end. The turnaround was also achieved by Bistrica, which triumphed over Fužinar with a score of 2:1 on Koroška.
The hero for the guests from Slovenska Bistrica was none other than the son of a legend. Both goals for Bistrica were scored by Marcos Tavares Jr. in front of 100 spectators, with the first goal coming in the 12th minute and the second in the 26th. In the 59th minute, Ikenna Divine Igwe reduced the home team’s deficit to one goal, but Fužinar still lost.
Drava took full advantage of the Koroška team’s slip-up by defeating Brežice at home in front of 110 spectators. The Ptuj side won 1:0, with the club’s hero from the oldest Slovenian city being the league’s top scorer, Klemen Mlakar. The youngster, who has also been scoring goals among the seniors (he scored 7 in the 3. SNL, adding one in the cup, and a total of 30 goals this season), decided the match in the 62nd minute.
With two rounds remaining, Drava has a one-point lead over Fužinar, with Bistrica trailing by six points in third place. In the next round, Bistrica and Drava will face off, while Fužinar will host Malečnik. The last round will also be intense, featuring the match between Drava and Fužinar. Therefore, it seems that the decision on the winner of the 2nd SNL East will be made only at the last moment.
