Taborska Sezana edged past Triglav 1-0 in the second round of the Second SNL on Thursday evening. A. Zulic's 75th-minute goal proved enough to keep the hosts top of the table with five points to spare over their nearest rivals. By then the match had settled into a familiar pattern: home side controlling territory, visitors looking for the counter.
Triglav arrived in third place having won three from four, while the hosts carried an unbeaten run into this fixture. The visitors had been reduced to ten men in their last outing against Bistriţa, losing 0-4, and that memory might have made them cautious. To be fair, Taborska Sezana's own recent form had been solid — three consecutive wins before this result.
The decisive moment came late in the game. Zulic found space and struck cleanly, stretching the back line as he did so. It was the only clear-cut chance either side created, and that tells its own story about how this match unfolded. The home side kept them in it for long stretches, but when it mattered, Triglav had nothing left to offer.
With that goal, Taborska Sezana extended their unbeaten run to eight across all competitions. They now sit four points clear at the summit, having played one more game than the chasing pack. Triglav's three wins from four means they remain competitive, but the gap is growing.
What this result means is simple: the home side are the team to beat in this division. They have not lost, they have not dropped points, and they have the momentum. Triglav will need to find answers before their next fixture, because right now they are watching from the outside looking in.
