From our football correspondent Crisis

Market

Lovro Stanić 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 Lucko can pretend not to have heard.

Match

The wait goes on for Lucko

6 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Juan Ignacio Blanco gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Juan Ignacio Blanco has just signed for Lucko, and for once the answer mattered.

Match

Lucko leaking at the back

6 matches, two or more conceded in every one of them. Sides that create as much as this can live with it for a while. Nobody lives with it forever.

Market

Lucko sign Josip Rebic for $120.0K

The paperwork is done: Josip Rebic joins from Zadar in a deal worth $120.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Market

Lucko sign Damir Cop for $120.0K

The paperwork is done: Damir Cop joins from Zadar in a deal worth $120.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Squad

Adauto Júnior 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 Lucko this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

$120.0K for Damir Cop, and Lucko supporters approve

Boards get told what they have done wrong for years and hear nothing on the days they get it right. This is one of those days: Damir Cop from Zadar for $120.0K, and a ticket office having a very good morning.

Match

Segesta take the points off Lucko

Beaten 1‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The Zadar Gazette

From our football correspondent Triumph

Match

Zadar run riot against Rudes

6‑1, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings

Tin Bilic scores twice — 9.28

Two goals and a mark of 9.28 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

Stipe Orsic breaks a bone — 28 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 28 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Petar Benko takes the match ball home

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

Market

Tin Simunovic asks to leave Zadar

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match

7 goals as Zadar and Rudes go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Zadar and Rudes, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Player ratings

One of those days for Petar Benko

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.79, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match

Whatever happens, Zadar do not lose

6 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Market

Business is business: Josip Rebic goes

Lucko paid $120.0K 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.
