The international break is over, and on Saturday, the 8th round of the Prva Liga Telemach will begin. The opening match will be held in Murska Sobota, where Oskar Drobne, the new coach of Mura, will make his debut against Primorje. The match will start at 17:30. In the evening, the spotlight will be on Domžale, where Radomlje will host Olimpija. The Ljubljanans lead the standings, and coach Victor Sanchez believes that his players will be even better after the break, which was very beneficial for the team.
“The break was very timely. We had a good rest. The players had several days off and consequently more time for family and friends. We definitely recharged our batteries, which is extremely important before the next set of matches. Football always remains in our thoughts, but I believe the break was ideal. Now it’s time to focus on the future,” Victor Sanchez said at the club’s website.
Victor Sanchez: “You have to stay humble”
Regarding the upcoming challenges, the Spanish coach emphasized that Olympija faces a demanding match schedule, but he is looking forward to it. “We are confident and believe that we can succeed in the Conference League. We respect our opponents. We know it will be tough, but we want to compete. We did excellently in the qualifiers, and now I believe we will have the right opportunity in the next phase of the competition. Before that, we need to think about the league matches. We have Radomlje, Bravo, and then Primorje ahead. Soon we will also start with the cup, which is also one of our targets. In professional football, you have to stay focused on the next game. You have to stay humble,” Victor Sanchez advised his players.
In Domžale, Olimpija will once again have support from the stands tonight, and Victor Sanchez does not hide his pleasure at the fact that the Dragons’ fans have been attending matches in large numbers recently. According to Olimpija, more than 50,000 spectators have attended the green-and-white’s games this season.
“We can’t demand anything from the fans. But we are grateful to them; they really support us, traveled with us across Europe, and bought tickets. We can only thank them. The best way to thank them is to play as we have been playing so far. If a player enjoys playing on the field, then the fan enjoys watching. That is my goal,” Victor Sanchez concluded before the match against the millers.
