From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match5 Oct 2026

Zadar refuse to drop out of the race

Position 1, 25 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Match3 Oct 2026

10 unbeaten for Zadar

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 10 matches without defeat is a foundation Zadar did not have in the autumn.

Market5 Oct 2026

Marko Tadic 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 The request is on a desk at Zadar, and it is not being withdrawn.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Aliou Thiaré goes up and wins it — 7.97

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 7.97 for the rest of it.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Zadar

Daniel Erceg 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.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Ivan Vukovic 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.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Antonio Petkov out for 28 days

The medical room confirms 28 days on the sidelines for Antonio Petkov, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Dino Rebic signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Dino Rebic and Zadar agree another 1 years.

Match3 Oct 2026

Zadar and Lucko take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

From our football correspondent Triumph

Match26 Sep 2026

Zadar cannot stop winning

9 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.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Daniel Erceg 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 Zadar this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Jonathan Gonçalvès 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.

Squad28 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Daniel Erceg

“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.

Match26 Sep 2026

Zadar keep winning on the road

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

Match26 Sep 2026

Zadar get the job done against Dugopolje

A 1‑0 win over Dugopolje, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

A masterclass from Ivan Vukovic

Marked 8.36 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Daniel Erceg leaves them behind him

Shots: 6. Goals: none. The chances were there and they were good ones, and they went into the stand, the goalkeeper's arms and the side netting in roughly that order.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Getting past Mate Bjelica has become the hardest job in the division

6 clean sheets and counting. Forwards used to back themselves here; now they shoot early, shoot wide, and look for somebody to blame.

Match29 Aug 2026

Goran Vlasic wins it after the whistle should have gone

92 minutes played. Goran Vlasic found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Rudes went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Goran Vlasic takes the match ball home

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

Market31 Aug 2026

Marko Tadic hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Zadar can pretend not to have heard.

Match29 Aug 2026

Nobody wants to play Zadar right now

5 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.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Daniel Erceg 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 Zadar this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match29 Aug 2026

Goran Vlasic sends Zadar past Rudes

It finished 3‑2, and it was Goran Vlasic’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Zadar.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

A masterclass from Goran Vlasic

Marked 9.45 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Market31 Aug 2026

Business is business: Marco Brekalo goes

Lucko paid $66.0K and Zadar took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Jonathan Gonçalvès 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.

Market3 Aug 2026

Marko Tadic 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 Zadar, and it is not being withdrawn.

The terraces3 Aug 2026

The ground has had enough

“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 10 of the 32 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A muscle injury sidelines Goran Vlasic for 16 days

Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. Zadar will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.

Market3 Aug 2026

Dugopolje come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Zadar did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

A first appearance Ivan Vrsaljko will want to forget — 5.79

Everybody's debut is one of two stories and this was the other one. 5.79, 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Zadar

Daniel Erceg 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Luka Ivanovic 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.

Match1 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Zadar against Lucko

1‑2 to Lucko, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Goran Vlasic 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.
