Mura has, after a long time and especially for the first time under Anton Žlogar’s leadership, managed to secure three league points on the field. The black-and-whites visited Domžale on Friday evening, where spectators witnessed a total of 8 goals! Mura scored five of them, clinching a much-needed victory with a scoreline of 5:3. Anton Žlogar was satisfied with what he saw, although he was a bit bothered by the fact that his team’s net was rattled three times.
“I am satisfied with the win, satisfied with the performance of the boys. We had a bad 20 minutes in the second half when we conceded a goal for 1:2, and then two more goals after leading 1:5. It’s a lapse in concentration, which should not happen, as we are still punished for every little mistake,” said Anton Žlogar after the match near Kamniška Bistrica.
The former Slovenian national team player continued: “Otherwise, I was very happy and satisfied with the performance in attack. We were quite lively, created a lot of chances. The goal we scored to take the lead lifted us, and I’m happy for the boys because it’s an important aspect, especially psychologically, and crucial points in the battle for survival.”
Žlogar: “It’s tough for us too”
Anton Žlogar emphasized among other things that it was only a matter of time before things turned around for his players, as they work very well in training – as a Primorje native – “Sometimes it’s tough to face journalists because we’ve had a series of poor results, but I’ve always said that the boys are working well and trying hard. You have to be rewarded for that at some point. I congratulate them on the win, but there’s still a lot of hard work ahead of us. We can be happy tonight, but tomorrow we’re already thinking about the next match. The win means as much to me personally as it does to the boys. With my colleagues, we are fully committed to this project, it’s tough for us too, but tonight’s effort was rewarded with the result,” says Žlogar.
Mura will play their next match midweek, facing Koper at Bonifika Stadium on Wednesday for a place in the Pivovarna Union Cup semifinals.
