In Saturday, the 25th round of the 2. SNL continued, which on Friday delivered a sensational victory for Tabor away at Krka. Sežana celebrated a convincing 5-0 victory in Novo Mesto and climbed off the bottom of the Second League table. However, only for 24 hours. Just a day later, Ilirija responded to Tabor with a win, further heating up the battle to avoid relegation. Especially since they defeated Fužinar, meaning that now the four weakest teams (Fužinar, Krka, Ilirija, Tabor) in the standings are separated by only two points!
Ilirija and Fužinar clashed in Šiška, where 100 spectators gathered. They witnessed four goals, three of which were scored by the hosts, who ended a streak of six consecutive matches without a win. The first goal of the match, officiated by top-tier referee Nejc Kajtazović, came in the 47th minute from Žiga Korošec, and six minutes later, Kristjan Irmančnik equalized.
The score remained 1-1 for long; already in the 57th minute, Ilirija – strengthened in the winter by experienced Matic Fink, who played until the 44th minute before being replaced by Korošec – celebrated again. Ranaldo Ranaldino Biggs raised the score to 2-1, and then, on loan from Domžale, he sealed the crucial victory for the club from Ljubljana in the 78th minute.
Ilirija under the new leadership of Milomir Kondić
It is worth mentioning that Ilirija recently quietly decided to change their coach, with Milomir Kondić, the autumn coach of Kranj‘s Triglav, taking over. Kondić replaced Robert Kopčič and achieved his first victory in his new role on just his second match.
