Mura continues to search in vain for their first home league victory in 2024. Well, the statistics reveal that they defeated Maribor 3-0 this year, but it’s true that this victory was achieved through administrative means. But on the field… But on the field, Mura simply cannot find their rhythm at the Fazanerija, and that was the case again today when Koper visited Murska Sobota. This was already the third match between the two clubs in less than a month, yet despite everything, Mura can be more satisfied after this trilogy, mainly due to their advancement to the cup semifinals. Nonetheless, today’s match ended in a draw, finishing 1-1.
Mura celebrated taking the lead in the first-half stoppage time when Amadej Maroša found the net from close range. Just before that, Mura’s Greek player Alexandros Kyziridis came close after a nice dribble, but his attempt was denied by the woodwork. Koper equalized in the 50th minute when Matic Maruško was adjudged to have fouled Luka Vešner Tičić in the penalty area by the referees. There was contact between the players, but many felt it was not a foul worthy of a penalty. Timothe Nkada, Koper’s top scorer, didn’t waste the opportunity and leveled the score.
Koper was the more dangerous side towards the end of the game, with Wisdom Sule hitting the crossbar among other chances. Mura ended the game with one man down as Žiga Kous received a red card for elbowing. Koper had over ten minutes with a numerical advantage, but the scoreline remained unchanged.
