Saturday brought the first concrete answer regarding the two main battles in the 2. SNL. The first club to leave the second league competition is known; one round before the end, Fužinar is without a chance of survival. The Carinthians hosted Tabor at home, a club also fiercely fighting for survival. The match was dramatic; Fužinar took the lead but lost despite playing with one player more for 50 minutes.
The hosts celebrated the lead in the 12th minute when central defender Papa Mamadou Seck scored, but even that wasn’t enough for the much-needed three points. The turnaround was provided by Lorenzo Gonzalez, who scored in the 29th minute, and Krasimir Todorov, who sealed Sežana’s victory in the 86th minute. As mentioned, the Primorians won with one player less after Rashid Fuseini was sent off in the 40th minute. It should be noted that Fužinar bid farewell to the 2. SNL after seven years of uninterrupted play in this level of Slovenian football.
Tabor is currently in a safe 14th place, but only one point ahead of Ilirija, which has one game less. Ljubljana’s team will play at home against Tolmin tomorrow. In the last round, Tabor will host Primorje, which is fighting for 1. SNL, while Ilirija will visit NK Brinje Grosuplje.
