The NK Zavrc Chronicle
Match12 Sep 2026
NK Zavrc taken apart
0‑4 to Koper, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.
Match12 Sep 2026
8 matches without a win for NK Zavrc
The run now stands at 8, and the questions being asked around NK Zavrc are no longer polite ones.
Squad14 Sep 2026
7 saves: Bo Geens was the team
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 7 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.
Squad14 Sep 2026
Words at NK Zavrc training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Rok Frešer is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

One of our own: Tomas Balkovec joins the NK Zavrc first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Tomas Balkovec is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
Market14 Sep 2026
NK Zavrc promote Petar Lovric from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Petar Lovric has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
Boardroom14 Sep 2026
Doors closed at NK Zavrc
The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.
Market14 Sep 2026
NK Zavrc and Roko Brajković are talking past each other
“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.
The dugout14 Sep 2026
Benjamin Elsnik answers for it
“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑4, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.
In brief
- The dugout Robert Pušaver is still paying for one afternoon at NK Zavrc
- Player ratings Robert Pušaver gives it away
- The dugout Žiga Pečjak gets picked when it counts
