If anyone thought that Celje eliminated a naive team from the Champions League qualifiers, which doesn’t know what it’s doing in Europe, they were certainly mistaken. The Slovak giant Slovan proved its quality even on the third step towards the elite, where it eliminated APOEL without conceding a goal. For Slovan, Kenan Bajrić played well in both matches, with his compatriot Vid Belec opposing him.
The Slovenian international kept a clean sheet in the return leg, but the “damage” was already done in Slovakia. There, Slovan scored two goals, and Kenan Bajrić and his teammates managed to hold the advantage in the hot Nicosia. The match ended 0:0, even though the Cypriots took as many as 18 shots (5 on target), and Slovan progressed with an aggregate score of 2:0. The Bratislava club, which has – naturally – already secured a European autumn, is now just 180 minutes away from the competition of all competitions.
The versatile 29-year-old Kenan Bajrić, who is proving himself not in the defense of Slovan this season, but in the position of defensive midfielder, and his teammates will face the winner of the Midtjylland – Ferencvaros clash in the final round of qualifiers. The Danes won the first leg 2:0.
