Player ratings

Viktor Kanižaj 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.

Squad

Words exchanged at Sesvete

Mateo Bačić and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets

Sesvete rebuffed over Aleks Stojaković

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

Market

One of our own: Bruno Kovacevic joins the Sesvete first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Bruno Kovacevic is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Sesvete promote Ivan Kovac from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Ivan Kovac has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Moses Zambrang Barnabas

“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.

Match

Sesvete caught on 87 minutes

The board was up, the win was priced in, and then Lucko scored. There is no worse minute to concede in and the ground emptied in the silence that follows one.

In brief
