A late goal defeats Ivelin Popov and Spartak, the chances of the Russian team almost burned
Spartak’s (Moscow) team was defeated at home against Outside Maribor in an E-League match of the Champions League, finishing 1: 1. Bulgarian Ivelin Popov started from the first minute of the game and was replaced in the 63rd. Ze Luisch scored for the Muscovites in the 82nd minute, but Mesanovic equalized in the 92nd. With success, Spartacus would have made Liverpool on the top of the group and outstripped Sevilla by one point. Instead, Poppeto and the company stayed third before conquering Liverpool and Sevilla.
The hosts went boldly forward from the first minute. In the seventh Lewis Adriano took the ball from Pope’s feet and did not hit the strike with a great position. In the 18th Zeus, Luis made a nice turn from the left, flipped a defender, released himself to center, but assists inaccurately and the defender slaughtered from the small penalty area. In the 45th Mario Pashalic headed too high after a head shot. Slovenia’s guests were timidly attacking, but showed that they could punish their rival on a rare counter.
Spartak (Moscow) – Maribor + 22
In the 48th minute Ivelin stopped with a rear-end offense. The judge correctly pulled out a yellow card to the Bulgarian. After centering, Schuler diverted the ball, the goalie of the Muscovites did not move, and the ball deviated from the side beam. The 63nd Poppeto was changed.
The hosts strained their pressure, but their sight still cheated them. In the 77th Zeus, Luis was left alone on the first beam, jumped and shot his head but sent the ball about half a meter to the side. Two minutes later, Ze Luis again pointed his head, this time from a further distance.

In the 82nd, the Russian team finally reached the goal so far. Ze Luis took the wisest decision to miss the ball after centering to the left, so he released himself and a few seconds later he got the ball and strayed the ground to the far corner of the goal keeper – 1: 0. After the goal, the hosts pulled back and allowed their opponent to attack. This was the 92nd minute in which Mshansovich was forgotten in the small field, got the ball to his feet, and realized without any resistance at the door.
