Olimpija secured a 1-0 victory over Soboška in a match marked by defensive struggles and tactical missteps. The current national champions, with defender Veljko Jelenković sidelined due to injury, initially controlled possession but lacked a clear strategy against Soboška’s organized defense. Key player Ivan Borna Jelić Balta was absent due to accumulated yellow cards.
Spectators anticipated a breakthrough after Olimpija’s initial struggles, but Mura capitalized on a defensive error in the 30th minute, creating their first significant opportunity. Kenan Kurtović received the ball in a central position within the penalty area, though his shot narrowly missed the target. Mura, having registered two shots in the first half, made their first substitution in the 41st minute following an injury to Žan Flis.
Olimpija failed to generate any shots during the same period. The result reflects a game characterized by defensive solidity and a lack of attacking precision from both sides.
