The bid was some way short and NK Domzale did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

NK Domzale supporters have found a favourite in Filip Cerin

Nobody could get near Filip Cerin
Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The plan did not have a place for Gregor Birsa
Nobody at NK Domzale is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.
