Bravo defeated Mura 2-0 at ZSD Ljubljana Stadium in the seventh round of the 1. SNL on Friday evening. The hosts took all three points from a match where efficiency outweighed territorial dominance. Mura had more possession but could not find the net against a stubborn defence.
M. Nzuzi opened the scoring in the thirtieth minute, giving Bravo the lead they would not relinquish. R. Kopatin doubled the advantage in the sixty-eighth after a sustained period of pressure. Three substitutions were made for each side as the match progressed, with N. Kasalo and F. Jevsenak among those brought on.
Discipline became an issue in the second half. I. Jelic and A. Jakupovic both received yellow cards in the fifty-fifth minute, while F. Sana, S. Nuhanovic, M. Rozman and J. Brunnhofer were booked later. Kopatin was substituted in the ninetieth, having completed his contribution.
Bravo registered 40 per cent possession and produced four shots on target from 99 attacks. Mura claimed 61 per cent of the ball and generated 133 attacks, but only managed five shots on target. The visitors had more corners and throw-ins but could not convert their superiority into goals.
The result keeps Bravo in third place with eleven points from seven games. Mura remain eighth with seven points, their record of two wins and four defeats unchanged. The hosts extended their recent run of results, while Mura's poor away form continues to weigh on their campaign.
