From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad26 Oct 2026

Ivan Božić takes the match ball home

4 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Match24 Oct 2026

Cibalia tear Lucko apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 5‑1 against Lucko, and it could have been more.

Match24 Oct 2026

Still nobody has beaten Cibalia

The unbeaten run reaches 13. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Ivan Božić is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.65 with 20 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Paul Bismarck Tabinas beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 29. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Ivan Božić was on a different afternoon to everybody else

10.00. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Match24 Oct 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Cibalia and Lucko in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

David Žabec in the eights

A performance of 8.86 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

The terraces26 Oct 2026

Cibalia supporters have found a favourite in Noa Godec

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 19-year-old it feels ownership of. Noa Godec has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings12 Oct 2026

Ivan Božić scores twice — 9.69

Two goals and a mark of 9.69 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Match10 Oct 2026

Still nobody has beaten Cibalia

The unbeaten run reaches 11. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Player ratings12 Oct 2026

Paul Bismarck Tabinas was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 27. 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 ratings12 Oct 2026

Gabrijel Boban, 37, rolls back the years — 8.50

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.50 at 37, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Ivan Božić is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.52 with 15 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Match10 Oct 2026

Ivan Božić sends Cibalia past Dugopolje

It finished 3‑2, and it was Ivan Božić’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Cibalia.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Cibalia

Ivo Vukić 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 dugout12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Noa Godec

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Noa Godec, and the manager let it.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

A promise honoured at Cibalia

Something was said to Paul Bismarck Tabinas and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

In brief

  • Squad Cibalia are still strangers to each other
  • Player ratings Noa Godec's mistake decides it
  • The dugout Ali Al-Amri dropped after a run of poor form

Match12 Sep 2026

Cibalia cannot stop winning

7 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Noa Godec, 19, steals the show — 7.65

Marked 7.65 at 19, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Cibalia baulk at the price for Lovre Lončar

Slaven Belupo wanted more than $320.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Match12 Sep 2026

Cibalia keep winning on the road

4 away wins in a row. Travelling support is the truest kind, and this season it is being repaid in the only currency that counts.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Renato Kelić

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Renato Kelić, and the manager let it.

Match12 Sep 2026

Ivan Božić sends Cibalia past Zadar

It finished 1‑0, and it was Ivan Božić’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Cibalia.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

One of those days for Ivan Božić

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.06, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad14 Sep 2026

9 new faces, and Cibalia are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Ali Al-Amri dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
