Taborska thrashed Krško 6-0 on Sunday evening at the Krško ground, a result that leaves the visitors top of the Second SNL after three matches. Krško now sit fourth from bottom with five points from four games, while Taborska have taken all twelve available points. and here's the thing — the scoreline tells only half the story, because Taborska made it look effortless from the opening whistle.
The goals came in a steady stream. Taborska struck in the fifteenth minute, then again at twenty-three, before adding two more before half-time at thirty and thirty-three. A fifth goal arrived at forty, and the sixth came late on at seventy-four. by then the match was already decided, but the visitors kept pushing.
to be fair Taborska had not looked this sharp in their previous outing. They beat Triglav 1-0 two weeks ago, and before that saw off Jesenice 3-0. This time they were ruthless, turning five of their chances into goals. Krško, meanwhile, had drawn with Jesenice and beaten Primorje in their last two league games, but those results meant little against a side this clinical.
The statistics, when they come, will show possession and shots, but the truth is in the scoreboard. Taborska never got going in the first half, but then they never really needed to. Krško were left exposed at both ends, and the clean-sheet run they might have hoped for came to an end before the break.
What this means for the table is clear enough. Taborska lead by seven points over their nearest challengers, and they have played the same number of games. Krško, in twelfth, have one win and two draws but now face a difficult run. and here's the thing — it is not the result that will worry them so much as the manner.
