The club season 2023/24 also concluded in the Austrian Regionalliga Mitte, which featured a bunch of footballers from Slovenia. One of them celebrated the first place and promotion to the second league. Nino Pungaršek, formerly of Celje and Olimpija, contributed to his club’s convincing victory. ASK Voitsberg finished with a whopping 19-point lead over Union. Nino Pungaršek made 19 appearances, scoring twice. Although he didn’t play in the last match, he was still on the field as the home team celebrated in front of as many as 1300 spectators. Free beer flowed abundantly, and the organizer even arranged a fireworks display.
A Slovenian also landed completely at the bottom. And not just one. The last place was occupied by SV Allerheiligen, with its most notable Slovenian representative undoubtedly being Rok Kronaveter, who scored 6 goals, but that wasn’t enough to avoid relegation. In this season, SV Allerheiligen also featured Marino Hamer and Marcel Blaj, and it will undoubtedly be interesting to see what the future holds for them after dropping to the fourth division.
Let’s also add that in the 2023/24 season in the Regionalliga Mitte, the most goals among Slovenians were scored by Anej Kmetič, who proved himself during the winter trial at Domžale. The 24-year-old found the net 14 times, earning him sixth place on the list of the most effective players in the competition. Anej Kmetič played for ASK Klagenfurt, which finished the season twelfth.
