Match

Borac Čačak taken apart

1‑4 to Smederevo 1924, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Match

No end in sight to Borac Čačak's wait for a win

6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Borac Čačak has to find a result from somewhere.

Market

Marko Knežević puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Borac Čačak, and it is not being withdrawn.

Player ratings

Luka Lazarević goes up and wins it — 7.46

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.46 for the rest of it.

Squad

Real improvement from Vukota Isakovski at Borac Čačak

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Vukota Isakovski is 19, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

Tempers go at Borac Čačak

Zarija Lambulić was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The dugout

Darko Stanojević gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Mihajlo Terzić falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Claudemir wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Borac Čačak can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

In brief

  • Boardroom Nobody left the Borac Čačak dressing room in a hurry
  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • Transfer targets A loan move for Mateja Gašić is in the works

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Aleksandar Janković

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

Nikola Čolić was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 16. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Player ratings

Nobody on the pitch touched Vukota Isakovski

7.50, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Borac Čačak had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

Match

Borac Čačak share the spoils with Dinamo Vranje

A 1‑1 draw with Dinamo Vranje leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Luka Simic chose the glass-half-full version of 1‑1; the supporters left with the other one.

The dugout

Nikola Petrić is still being punished for one mistake

Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.

Squad

A Borac Čačak teenager takes the young player award

Vukota Isakovski is 18, and for one weekend he was the best of everybody his age in the division. Nobody should build a career on it and everybody quietly does.

The dugout

Darko Stanojević does not fit this one

Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

Market

The Vukota Isakovski story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Vukota Isakovski signs something — a contract at Borac Čačak or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad

A falling-out at Borac Čačak

Vukota Isakovski and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Jia Weiwei wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Borac Čačak can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad

Time is catching up with Claudemir

Everybody at Borac Čačak saw it before anybody said it, which is how this always goes. At 38 the decline is real and measurable — 3 points — and the only question left is how the club handles somebody it owes a great deal to.

The dugout

A promise honoured for Pavle Mihajlović

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Borac Čačak told Pavle Mihajlović something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Squad

A Borac Čačak teenager takes the young player award

Vukota Isakovski is 18, and for one weekend he was the best of everybody his age in the division. Nobody should build a career on it and everybody quietly does.

Looking ahead

Darko Stanojević faces his old club

Loznica next, and one man in the Borac Čačak dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

The dugout

Uroš Mojsilović asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

The shop window has Marko Knežević in it

Borac Čačak have let the market know Marko Knežević can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

The dugout

A door opens for Huang Zihao

He asked about his future and was given an answer with minutes in it. The manager has now made a promise in a building where promises are remembered, and the clock on it has started.
