Squad28 Dec 2026

9 saves: Stefan Ranđelović was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 9 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Player ratings28 Dec 2026

Aleksandar Pejović scores twice — 8.28

Two goals and a mark of 8.28 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Đorđe Jovanović is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.37 with 19 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Match26 Dec 2026

Nobody wants to play Radnik Surdulica right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad28 Dec 2026

Aleksandar Pejović 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 Radnik Surdulica this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match26 Dec 2026

Aleksandar Pejović among the goals in a wild afternoon

6 goals in one match, Aleksandar Pejović on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Radnik Surdulica and Vojvodina.

Match26 Dec 2026

Aleksandar Pejović the difference as Radnik Surdulica beat Vojvodina

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Aleksandar Pejović. 4‑2 against Vojvodina, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings28 Dec 2026

Vukašin Bogdanović in the eights

A performance of 8.29 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings28 Dec 2026

Đorđe Jovanović was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.04. 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.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Stefan Vlahovic

23 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Radnik Surdulica lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad2 Nov 2026

3 goals for Đorđe Jovanović

The match ball belongs to Đorđe Jovanović, whose 3 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

A defender's goal wins it for Radnik Surdulica — 7.95

1 for Rafael Pontelo, marked 7.95, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Match31 Oct 2026

Đorđe Jovanović among the goals in a wild afternoon

6 goals in one match, Đorđe Jovanović on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Radnik Surdulica and Radnicki 1923.

Match31 Oct 2026

Radnik Surdulica get the job done against Radnicki 1923

A 4‑2 win over Radnicki 1923, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Đorđe Jovanović in the eights

A performance of 9.73 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

The terraces2 Nov 2026

One of their own: Rafael Pontelo

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

David Stojanović 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.

Boardroom2 Nov 2026

$3.0M on the table at Radnik Surdulica

The board have answered with money instead of encouragement, which is the only answer a manager ever wants. Spending it well is now entirely his problem.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Match24 Oct 2026

No end in sight to Napredak's wait for a win

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

Squad26 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Napredak

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

Match24 Oct 2026

Partizan take the points off Napredak

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Marko Pavlovski 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.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Miloš Vulić runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Filip Krstić

“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.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Uros Kostic faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Uros Kostic after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Market26 Oct 2026

A long bet from Napredak on Denzel Opoku

He is 19, and nobody at Napredak signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The form table has caught Nikola Bogdanovski

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match15 Aug 2026

Napredak taken apart

0‑3 to Novi Pazar, 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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

6 saves: Nemanja Stevanović was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Words at Napredak training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Strahinja Jovanović is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Napredak rebuffed over Nemanja Krsmanović

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Spartak Subotica have kept their man, and Napredak go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Nobody left the Napredak dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

The dugout17 Aug 2026

Uros Kostic: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑3, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Napredak ask about Luka Puzović

A loan enquiry to Radnik Surdulica: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

The dugout17 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Dragan Bojat

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

The dugout17 Aug 2026

Nikola Bogdanovski 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.
