We have come to the very end of the autumn part of the season, five games of the 14th round were supposed to be played today, but weather problems postponed three of them, which will still be played on Sunday. In the games played, Valpovci and Đakovo each have a point, Vuteks three, Slavia none.
NASK – BELISĆE – postponed
TOMISLAV DAC – VINOGORAC– postponed
ČEPIN – THE FIGHTER – postponed
SLAVIA – VUTEKS STYLE 0:2
Vuteks took advantage of what we mentioned as a potentially big problem for Slavia, the absence of Tomislav Žuljević and Dina Bognar, who together scored three quarters of Slavia’s goals, had to be used by the visiting defense, the net remained untouched, and then even one goal was enough for a great victory by which they The people of Vukovar corrected some earlier mistakes. Slavija, on the other hand, spoiled some of the good things done earlier by losing at home and thus took two steps backwards. It took half an hour for Vuteks to score the much-desired goal, scored by Nikola Nešić, also the best individual of the match. The winner was decided in the 81st minute when Igor Tunjić Lukić made it 2:0 for the guests, and that was the final result of the match.
Player of the match: Nikola Nešić
– Today we played a very disciplined game from the first minute to the last. We gave the opponent the ball, and we stood in a solid block and tried to threaten their goal from the counter, which we succeeded twice. We left the home team without a single serious chance in the match. Very important three points for us. Now we are preparing for the last round, to try to take three points and end the half-season with a balance of 20 points, which is not great, but not bad either. Thanks to the hosts for their hospitality and good luck. – the statement was made by the sports director of Vuteks Sloga, Saša Popin.
VALPOVKA – ĐAKOVO CROATIA 1:1
The black cat in green once again spoiled Đakovo’s plans, although this time incomparably less than exactly a year ago when they were “scratched” six times at Pazarište. Once again, Đakovo will have the match ball for the autumn crown at its stadium, this time the opponent will be Našk. An excellent match was played by these teams despite the difficult pitch and icy weather, at the end everyone got a point, nobody goes home unhappy, especially not because good football was played. The advantage for the Đakovo team was brought by Antonio Blažanović, who burst into flames at the end of the season. In the end, ten minutes before the end, Ivan Kos scored a beautiful goal, after a real small slalom, he scored for the final 1:1.

– Great match from both sides, but when everything is added up, I think we created more chances, were closer to victory and should have celebrated, but well, that’s how it is in football. We won a point, but it feels like we won three points. Good game, race, combativeness at an enviable level – for a match to be good, you also need a good opponent, and today we had him. I still regret that we did not take advantage of the 100% chance at the end of the game, because such situations regularly punish us, both in the last season and in this one. But it doesn’t matter, let’s move on, probably today was not the game where he will come back to us. I certainly congratulate my team both on the result and on the game, and I wish the guests good luck in the continuation of the competition. – said the coach of Valpovka, Dražen Pavličić.
– Congratulations to all the actors of today’s match – on a difficult pitch and cold weather, both teams played a fighting and ultimately excellent match. Our poor start to the game is not punished by the host, but we are the ones who score and take control of the game. In that period, we create a few more chances, but we fail to increase the advantage. As expected, towards the end of the game, the home team subordinated everything to the attack, which brought them fruit with a nice goal for a realistic result. A week of work is ahead of us to prepare for the new match – we have to regenerate after such a demanding match, but also be ready to face new challenges. – said the coach of Đakovo Croatia, Ivica Gavran.
