The game had an early flashpoint when Mura saw a goal cancelled after VAR inside the opening four minutes. They still went in front on 20 minutes through Niko Kasalo, and Celje's frustration showed when Armandas Kucys was booked three minutes later.

Celje responded quickly after the break. Leonardo Koutris and Mark Zabukovnik made way at halftime, and the reshuffle paid off almost immediately. After Alen Korosec entered the book for Mura, Seslar leveled in the 48th minute from Veton Tusha's assist.

Mura changed things on 57 minutes, sending on Alen Kozar and Marko Ascic, and the move worked straight away. Ascic scored at 59'51'' to make it 2-1 and put the visitors back in control.

Celje kept pressing. More home changes followed in the 71st minute, and VAR then awarded a penalty to the hosts on 73'38''. Seslar held his nerve from the spot at 75'44'' to make it 2-2.

There was still late drama. Seslar thought he had completed the turnaround in the 89th minute, but VAR ruled the goal out. Yellow cards for Seslar and Jan Kovacic at 90 minutes capped a frantic finish.
