Olimpija strolled to another victory without much trouble, continuing to stay in the title race. The Ljubljana side visited Kidričevo in the first match of the 23rd round of the Slovenian championship, where they had faced various difficulties in the past. However, it wasn’t the case this time. Olimpija celebrated a smooth and substantial victory, ending with a 4-0 scoreline, under the guidance of coach Zoran Zeljković. Three goals were scored by former members of Aluminij.

Olimpija practically dispelled any doubts about the winner in less than 20 minutes of play, needing only three minutes for that. They took the lead in the 15th minute when David Sualehe provided an assist from the left, and the captain of Olimpija and former Aluminij player Timi Max Elšnik headed the ball into the net. Elšnik also played a part in the second goal when his attempt rebounded to Raul Floruczo, who precisely shot from 10 meters, beating the teenager Lan Jovanović in the home team’s goal for the second time.
Just before the end of the first half, Olimpija scored the third goal, again with Elšnik on the scoresheet. Jorge Silva delivered a cross from the right-wing, where Ivan Durdov was too short, but Elšnik was quick with his leg to push the ball behind the helpless Jovanović. The high victory of the green and whites was sealed by Marko Brest, another former Aluminij player, who scored with a masterfully measured shot from the edge of the penalty area in the 65th minute.
With this victory, Olimpija reduced the gap to the leader Celje to seven points, at least for the next 24 hours. Aluminij will have to look for points in the relegation battle in the upcoming matches.
