A row about effort at Sesvete

Sesvete come up short against Rudes
Rudes left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

“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.

Antonio Petkov answers for it
“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

A season on the outside for Adam Žulevič

Ilan Pejić beats them one at a time
Successful dribbles: 11. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Bruno Durdov walks taller at Sesvete
His past walked in ahead of him. Players who have been where he has been get a hearing in a dressing room before they have earned one, and he has it for as long as his form does.
In brief
- The dugout The plan did not have a place for Antonio Kuš
- Player ratings The afternoon ran through Adam Žulevič
- Looking ahead Home comforts ahead for Sesvete
