Let’s be honest. All the excitement around Benjamin Šeško has slightly waned after Euro 2024, and he hasn’t received many playing minutes during the preparatory period either. However, the 21-year-old Slovenian football gem certainly hasn’t forgotten his best skill: scoring goals.
Clubs from the German Bundesliga will start their championship a week later than the teams from the other strongest European leagues, but they are in action this weekend in the cup. Marco Rose’s team faced third-division side Rot-Weiss Essen in the first round of the cup competition, which turned out to be anything but a routine task.
The hosts took the lead at the end of the second minute when Ramien Safi launched a counter-attack and masterfully scored with the help of the post. Unfortunately, the surprising lead didn’t last too long. Have you wondered why? Let’s give the floor to the Slovenian international. In the 12th minute, Amadou Haidara sent a cross into the home penalty area, beautifully finding Šeško, who easily headed the ball into the unguarded part of the net.
However, the former Salzburg member doesn’t just know how to finish successful actions, as he proved five minutes before the end of the first half. He made a great run into space, received a pass, and then in the heart of the home penalty area, assisted Loïs Openda, who ensured the visitors went into the break with a minimal lead from a favorable position.
LOÏS OPENDA TAKES THE COMEBACK LEAD WITH A GREAT FINISH!!!
