The team of Martin Sevela beat FK Senica 2:0 (2:0). After great performance we prevailed our opponent from Zahorie for the first time in Corgon League. The goals were scored by William and Haris Hajradinovic.
The first chance of the match had Hiago, but Volesak made a good save against his shot. From this moment, we started to dominate on the pitch and entertain the fans. In 22nd minute we scored for the first time. William netted after the pass of Cogley – 1:0. After 30 minutes of the game, Mazan hit the post. 5 minues later, Holubek together with Hajradinovic made a great counter-attack. Bosnian midfielder made a long pass to Holubek on left wing, got the ball back and stroke to the right upper corner of the goal - 2:0. Many of other attacks almost resulted in goals, especially William's header to the post.
In the second half, Senica was trying to get back to the game, but with no success. AS controlled the game. In 62nd minute, Senica skipper Tomas Kona was sent off after getting two yellows in one minute. This totally finished any effort of Senica to do something with result. In the end, William scored again but he was in an offside so the score remained the same.

Said after the match
Ivan Vrabec (AS Trencin coach): „We really worked hard to be ready for this match as we wanted to beat Senica finally. From the beginning we dominated and besides two beautiful goals we hit the post twice and created many other chances. The fans appreciated our performance with an applause, which is a commitment for us to repeat this performance during our next matches.“
Eduard Pagáč (FK Senica coach): „Two things determined the destiny of the match – performance of AS player Gino Van Kessel and our individual mistakes, which Trencin punished. Those were breaking moments in the match, which after the sending off our player lost the temp. First 25 minutes were quite good from our side, but then our mistakes completely destroyed us.“
