In the sold-out Ljudski vrt, the 157th eternal derby between Maribor and Olimpija kicked off at 8:15 PM. The match determines the second place in the Prva liga Telemach standings, and in the first half, it was also marked by Matevž Vidovšek. But to his dismay, in the wrong way. The Carinthian goalkeeper, who has often been Olimpija’s savior in the past, made a huge mistake after just over 10 minutes of play.
After a pass from the rejuvenated Josip Iličić in front of the goal of the visitors from Ljubljana, Matevž Vidovšek left his goal, dove for the ball, and completely… missed it! This was music to the ears of Hillel Soudani, who walked the round leather ball into the unguarded net of Olimpija.
Matevž Vidovšek could hardly afford such a huge mistake at a less opportune moment. The Euro 2024 is just over a month away, and Slovenian coach Matjaž Kek is already assembling his player puzzle. Matevž Vidovšek was part of the national team before the injury, but if Matjaž Kek takes into account this eternal derby… Well, the dragon’s goalkeeper didn’t do himself any favors.
