Our Slovenian striker contributed with a goal assist and a winning goal in the 2-1 victory.
"We knew we were in for a tough game and it proved to be the case. Our opponents played disciplined football throughout, but we fought hard on the pitch and came back from 0-1 down. Mario deserves congratulations, he scored a great goal, a goal that was very important for the team psychologically. This time we had a bit of luck, because at 1-1 our opponents hit the post but they didn't give us a gift, we fought hard on the pitch. Obviously it's not easy to score a decisive penalty in the 95th minute, but I believed in myself and that I would score. Of course, it was not my goal to score the winner, but I don't regret it at all, the important thing is that the team fought hard and we deserved to go through." the Slovenian striker told our website.
