Maribor easily leaped over the opening hurdle of the Pivovarna Union Cup. Ljudski vrt hosted the 3500 spectators Jurovski Dol, the quarter-liga team brought an army of more than 300 fans. But Maribor won the game easily, ending with 9:0 for Maribor. Arnel Jakupović scored three goals.

The first time the away net was shaken was after four minutes of play, when a cross from the left by Marko Strajnar was headed into the net by young Marcel Lorber, who was again accurate in the 27th minute. Arnel Jakupović set up a penalty area shot in the first minute. It was Jakupovic who was accurate seven minutes later, when he noticed that the visiting keeper was poorly positioned and took advantage with a precise shot from a considerable distance.
Moments later, Jakupović took advantage of a pass from Hillal Soudani and sent a superb fifth ball towards goal, but the ball was finally headed over the line by the visiting defender Divjak. Marko Kolar scored at the end of the first half after a pass from Strajnar to make it 5:0.

Marin Laušić continued the work of his teammates after the break, as he was left alone in front of an empty net after a pass from Marko Božić, and it is worth mentioning the phenomenal pass from Arnel Jakupović before that. With less than ten minutes left in regulation, Xhuliano Skuka made a nice save on the visiting goalkeeper to score Maribor’s seventh goal of the game.
