Tolmin has lost five consecutive matches in the 2. SNL. This time, the Tolmin team hosted Gorica, against whom they displayed a spirited and combative performance, but it was not enough for a victory. After quickly conceding a goal, the home team’s plans were somewhat derailed, but they managed to equalize at the end of the first half, with Kalani Almeida scoring his fourth goal of the season. In the second half, Tolmin then conceded a goal that led to their sixth defeat of the 2024/25 season.
In the home camp, which underwent a coaching change a week ago, there were some encouraging signs for the future despite the loss. “In both halves, we were the better opponent. We created more chances, but the problem is that we are conceding cheap goals, which needs to be fixed. Otherwise, the boys deserve all the praise for their approach. I believe that we will gradually rise, one way or another,” said Tolmin coach Rok Marinič, who recently replaced Jani Šturm.
“The first goal cut us a bit, but then we took the initiative and equalized. It’s a shame that we conceded a naive goal again. However, I believe that with such energy and approach, we can turn around the losing trend,” added Luka Rutar after the match against the Novogoričani, who, like his teammates, exerted a lot of energy on the demanding pitch.
In the next round, the Primorci will have an away match in Beltinci, who will be looking to get back to winning ways after their loss in Novo mesto. Therefore, the players from the Soška dolina club will have to give their all if they want to achieve a positive result.
