Marin Rantaša, a 22-year-old defender for Beltinci, who had previously honed his skills at Mura, was the unfortunate player in Saturday’s major Prekmurje derby for promotion to the Prva liga Telemach. Beltinci visited Lendava, where Nafta was tested several times. Among other things, the goal frame saved them…
However, despite everything, the Lendava team emerged victorious from a lively and exciting derby. The decider was an own goal by Marin Rantaša in the 78th minute of the match, much to his dismay. It was the only goal of the game witnessed by the spectators in Lendava, and with this new victory, Nafta now has an open path to the elite league. The Blue-and-Whites of Beltinci, who dropped to third place, and Gorica, now second, are trailing by seven points.
As mentioned, the Prekmurje derby was highly interesting and eventful; in fact, one could say that only the goals were missing. Beltinci had slightly more possession, but Nafta appeared more threatening statistically. It’s also noteworthy that the match drew an excellent attendance. As revealed by the Football Association of Slovenia (NZS), as many as 2200 spectators watched the game in Lendava, undoubtedly a first-league level attendance.
