“This shouldn’t be happening to us”

Olimpija hosted Mura at Stožice in Round 11 of the Prva Liga Telemach. Despite going two goals up, the Green-Whites were left without a win in the end as the sides shared a 3–3 draw.

After the match, two-goal scorer Indrit Tuci said: “We have to be honest—our matches are all similar. We take the lead, we play well, and in the end we’re left without the three points. It was the same this time. For a club like Olimpija, wins are what matter most, so we simply can’t afford the kind of mistakes we keep repeating. We go 3–1 up and then we don’t know how to see the game out. We concede two goals and in the end we have to settle for a 3–3 draw.”

“Maybe it’s concentration, maybe individual mistakes. But I’ll say it again: this shouldn’t be happening to us! We’re 2–0 up, then 3–1, and in the end it’s 3–3. We simply have to know how to close out the match and keep the ball. At 3–1 it could have finished 4–1, not 3–3.”

“At times we may have looked good, and the three goals show that. But what does it help if you concede three at home? We have to play with the same commitment in attack and in defence, and function as a team. Everyone has to breathe as one on the pitch, not that some play better and others worse. We all have to be at the same level.”

The Dragons are back in action on Friday, October 16, when the Green-Whites travel to Aluminij in Kidričevo for a 5:30 PM kick-off.
