Koper has once again tasted victory in their home ground after a long 5 months! Aleksandar Radosavljević, the “new” coach of the coastal club, finally savored the sweetness of victory at Bonifika, achieving it against a club he once played for. Against a club led by a Primorje native. Against a club also in a severe crisis of results. And against a club they will face in the cup semifinal. Koper emerged victorious against Mura with a score of 2-1.
Koper took the lead in the 25th minute when Andraž Ruedl and Florijan Raduha chased a ball into the penalty area after a cross. The Mura goalkeeper missed the ball but accidentally hit the young Koper player with his fist, knocking him to the ground. The referees took some time to make the decision, but there was no doubt: a penalty for Koper. Enej Jelenič stepped up and beat Raduha from the penalty spot, although the latter guessed the direction of the ball.
The hosts celebrated again in the 70th minute when Mura failed to clear a dangerous situation in front of their goal. Raduha initially made a successful save, but after another cross into the box and a shot by Bedej Osuji, the guests’ net shook once more. The Prekmurje team was convinced Osuji was in an offside position, but the replay revealed that one of Mura’s defenders was caught napping during the pass, and the goal stood.
Mura managed to score a consolation goal only in the 93rd minute when Amadej Maroša sprinted alone towards Jan Koprivca and calmly beat him. However, there wasn’t enough time for more, and Anton Žlogar continues to be without a league victory as Mura’s coach…
