Radomljanke, recently taken over by former Slovenian international Matej Mavrič Rožič, faced the women’s team of Sassuolo in Italy, where Slovenian international Naja Poje Mihelič also plays. After the match, the team from Italy celebrated a 7:0 victory. Sassuolo, which finished 4th in the Italian league last season, proved to be a strong opponent, but it’s important to note that Matej Mavrič Rožič’s squad put up a good fight for much of the match. Maja Zajc excelled between the posts with several good saves, and for most of the other girls, it was their first match at such a high level. Newcomers also played, and they will be introduced to the public after registration is completed.
“We must be honest, Sassuolo is a high-level club. We are far from being able to compete with them, but I must say that the girls put up a good fight in both halves against a really good opponent. Sassuolo has a large pool of players, but we responded solidly to this, although the opponent is better. I saw some good things, and we still have a lot of potential for improvement, especially in defensive phases, one-on-one situations, and when we lose possession of the ball; we need to reposition ourselves faster and better,” said Matej Mavrič Rožič after the match.
For Radomljanke, this was their second friendly match; they previously played against league opponent Gažan and celebrated a victory. Špela Gerbec, Ula Omerzu, and Sara Medić scored for Radomlje in that match. Despite their good performance, their coach noted that there is still much room for improvement.
The yellow-and-blacks are now halfway through their summer preparations, with 2 more friendly matches to come. According to our information, Radomljanke will face teams Südburgenland and GAK, which are from neighboring Austria and play in the local 2nd league.
