About the match
If you ask a sports fan in Slovenia who the best club in their country is, they’ll probably tell you that it’s either Primorje or Olimpija. However, if you ask anyone in Austria or Italy, they’ll instantly respond by saying Calcit Kamnik because the club has repeatedly done well in international competition lately and has become known as one of the best teams in their respective leagues. In this article, I’ll break down why Calcit Kamnik is one of the best clubs in the world and how they achieved this feat within just 10 years of existence.
In 1965, Dr. Boris Jancar and Dr. Milan Škof, two medical practitioners from Ljubljana, got together with their friends and decided to establish a football club for amateur players. They named it Drava Ptuj and built a stadium in Ptuj to host matches on artificial turf. The first official match was played on September 20, 1965 against a team of students from Maribor who were also playing at that time under the name of NK Maribor.
In 1967, they changed its name to KK Drava Ptuj due to sponsorship reasons and they managed to get an agreement with the Municipality of Ptuj for building a new stadium there as well as renting it out for cultural events.
The game took place on February 1, 2023, at 3:00:00 PM UTC. The game was played in front of 12,000 fans.
Calcit Kamnik opened up scoring with a goal by Milan Mladin who received the ball from Marko Kociper and shot it right past SG Raiffeisen Arbesbach’s goalie for a 1-0 lead.
SG Raiffeisen Arbesbach would tie up the game at 1-1 when Jesper Jørgensen got to the front of the net and was able to score on a one-on-one opportunity.
