For a good hour, they were more than a match for their favoured opponent and had several promising chances. The young Hungarian Shošić was an unsolvable riddle for the Dragons, but… But after a good hour, Radomlje “fell apart” and actually helped the visitors to another win in a row. Olimpija is playing like a team reborn after a change on the bench, and this time Zoran Zeljković’ s squad kept the net intact and reduced the gap to Celje to just two points with another win. But facts are facts and in this case it is definitely a fact that Radomlje opened the door wide for the Green-Whites to win.
Olimpija took the lead in 62. In the first minute, the hosts were playing in front of their own goal and after a few dangerous passes, they finally got into a tangle. In the penalty area, Dominik Prpić passed the ball badly to his goalkeeper, the visitors got to it and it was not difficult for Nemanja Motika to hit the empty net. Just four minutes later, the home defence was less foolish, but still quite exposed, and Rui Pedro took advantage, scoring his tenth league goal of the season to finally settle the issue of the winner.
Olimpija ended the game one down after David Sualehe was sent off by VAR for a really bad foul. Radomlje didn’t have enough time to turn the game around, but it has to be admitted that Denis Pintol contributed to Olimpija’s three points this time. The Ljubljana goalkeeper stopped five shots and remained unbeaten in the Telemach First League for the sixth time in a row.
