After six consecutive defeats, many saw them as one of the main candidates for relegation from the youth Eon NextGen league. However, Krka can now breathe a sigh of relief. The Dolenjska team has awakened just in time and celebrated their fourth consecutive victory on Saturday. During this time, the squad, led by Iztok Kapušin since winter, has scored a remarkable 16 goals. From a competitive perspective, it’s even more important that they now have a nine-point lead over the last-placed Gorica with four matches remaining in the season.
Krka faced Aluminij at the Portoval, a team that was flirting with the top positions on the table for some time but fell into a crisis and started sliding down the standings in the spring. The Kidričani were defeated in Novo Mesto, experiencing their third loss in the last four matches, from which they earned only one point. Krka celebrated a convincing victory, ending with a 4-1 scoreline in favor of the home team.
Interestingly, the match started poorly for Krka as their own player, Jakob Barborič, scored an own goal in the sixth minute. Aluminij successfully held onto the lead until the end of the first half, after which Gregor Medle equalized in the 44th minute. In the second half, Nik Pirc scored in the 58th minute to make it 2-1, and just before the end of the match, Tilen Kovačič (87) and Tai Meze (89) found the net. It’s worth noting that the guests ended the match with one player less after Rene Škerget was sent off in the 66th minute.
Krka, who climbed to 11th place on the table with this victory, ahead of their opponent in this match, started the game in front of 55 spectators with the lineup of Panić, Barborič, Mitič, Bušić, Milanović, Medle, Meze, Pirc, Kržan, Ćosić, Sečen, with Kovačič, Zaletel, Jarkovič, Novak, and Kolmanič also getting a chance to play. Simon Vidovič, the coach of Kidričani, sent out Petek, Colnarič, L. Schaubach, Simonič, Kosar, Škoflek, Mesarič, Škerget, Brumec, Kramberger, and Rahle in the starting eleven. Žerjav was the only substitute who came on from the bench.
