The senior team of ŽNK Radomlje Medex defeated the team of ŽNK Gažon Le-log with a score of 7:0 in the third round of the Triglav Women’s Football League. Following their midweek cup victory, Radomlje hosted their first league match of the 2024/25 season, once again celebrating a home victory.
Radomlje resolved doubts about the winner in the first half
The Yellow-Hearts took the lead in the opening minute of the match when Barbara Pšeničnik scored her first senior goal following an assist from Jona Javorič. In the fifth and tenth minutes, Ula Omerzu increased the lead for the Primorje team, scoring from a free kick for the second time in a week. The first-half score was finalized in the 17th minute when Ajda Zajc, assisted by Sara Medić, scored her first goal in the senior national championship.
In the second half, a similar picture emerged. Despite the rain, Radomlje continued to dominate and created several mature chances. Gažon’s goalkeeper, Žana Galjot, who is on loan from Radomlje, made several interventions but still conceded three more goals in the second half. In the 49th minute, Varja Špiler scored her first league goal in the yellow jersey, and in the 67th minute, Ula Omerzu completed her hat-trick with a superb goal. The final 7:0 score was secured five minutes later by Taja Jakopič, the third player of the night to celebrate her senior debut goal.
“Just like against Cerklje, we started the game well, as we had planned. It’s understandable that we dropped off in the second half, as we didn’t maintain our initial approach. When it’s 3:0 early on, that happens. In the second half, we tried to build on it with younger players, but I have to say that despite her youth, Barbara started excellently and debuted with a goal in the first half. I’m especially pleased that two players from the cadet team scored tonight. This shows them that they can compete and succeed in the senior team. It’s just another step forward in building this squad,” said Matej Rožič Mavrič after the team’s biggest victory of the season.
The fourth round of the national championship brings a new away match, where the Yellow-Hearts will face ŽNK Ljubljana without their cadet national team players: “We’ll need to be at our best and thoroughly prepare for the match. Unfortunately, some players are leaving for the national team, especially the younger ones who raise the pace in the second half. That’s how it is, we need to adapt, but I’m confident these girls can compete with anyone in this league. However, there’s still a lot of work ahead of them,” added Rožič Mavrič.
