Simovic stuns Argies

Wednesday 26th March - Friendly
Maribor, Slovenia

Goran Simovic's free-kick secured a stunning victory for Slovenia over Argentina.

The visitors could have been 1-0 up after 10 seconds, after Alberto Nunez immediately broke through the Slovenian defense and his shot beat the keeper, but agonizingly for the London United forward, it hit the post.

Argentinian defender Fernando Cassetti brought down Slovene striker Andrej Cepatic for a dangerous free-kick from 25 yards out.

And Manchester Magic defender Simovic made no mistake in curling past Fabián Caballero with only 20 minutes remaining on the clock.
