The only match of the 8th round in the 2. SNL featured a clash at the bottom of the standings. In Ljubljana, Slovan faced Bistrica. Both teams desperately needed points for greater peace of mind as the season progresses, making it clear that neither side wanted to leave anything to chance today.
On the windy pitch at Kodeljevo, Slovan hosted their fourth home match in front of 200 spectators. So far, coach Denis Omeragić’s team had recorded two draws and one loss on their home ground. Bistrica also could not boast a good record on the road, having only earned one point from four away matches.
This time, Bistrica started stronger, taking the lead in the 18th minute when the league’s top scorer Jaša Martinčič beat Slovan’s goalkeeper Anej Mrežar. The Ljubljana team tried to equalize but failed to capitalize on any opportunities and went into halftime trailing. In the second half, the home side pressed a bit more, but the visitors remained composed and scored a second goal in the 86th minute, with Ivijan Svržnjak, a former Croatian youth international, finding the net for a final score of 2-0.
With their second victory of the season, coach Robert Pevnik’s side temporarily climbed to 10th place with nine points, while Slovan, still winless, remains at the bottom of the table with four points.
