Match

Cup progress for Radnicki Nis

A 5‑2 win over Novi Pazar, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Squad

Dejan Stanivuković keeps Radnicki Nis in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 8 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings

A brace, and Maksim Kličković takes the afternoon — 8.20

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Maksim Kličković provided it, and the 8.20 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

Aarón Martínez: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Radnicki Nis have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

The terraces

Radnicki Nis sell a favourite for $1.1M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Mateja Radonjić was one of the reasons people came, and $1.1M does not replace that by itself.

Player ratings

A first appearance Jalil Traoré will want to forget — 5.75

Everybody's debut is one of two stories and this was the other one. 5.75, and the only consolation available is that nobody's career has ever been decided by ninety minutes in a shirt he had just been given.

Market

Radnicki Nis sell Mateja Radonjić for $1.1M

Mateja Radonjić has left for Partizan in a $1.1M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Franck Kanouté in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Radnicki Nis this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Humberto Norman is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 23 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

In brief
