On Friday, in the youth Eon NextGen league, among others, Olimpija and Krka faced off, with the Ljubljana team prevailing 1-0, staying in the title race. The man of the match was barely 16-year-old Mateo Aćimović, who has firmly established himself as one of the most talented footballers here this season, and the match was also special for his teammate from the cadet team. Svit Hočevar, who is only 15 years old, played for the first time in the youth championship, after coach Boštjan Miklič, who sent him on for captain Dino Kojić, gave him three minutes to prove himself.
Born in 2008, Svit Hočevar joined the dragons just over a year ago from Domžale (before that, he honed his skills at NK Šmartno), and this season, he boasts 14 goals in 22 matches in the national championship under 17, in which Olimpija is also contending for the title.
So far, Svit Hočevar has scored 40 goals in 61 matches in the under 15 and under 17 leagues, and the promising teenager already signed a professional contract with Olimpija in December last year. Now, he has taken the next step forward in his career, as debuting at fifteen in the under 19 league is certainly not an ordinary feat.
