Match

HNK Vukovar 1991 sink to position 9

9 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Squad

Dominik Mulac: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” HNK Vukovar 1991 have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Duje Matić 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 HNK Vukovar 1991 can pretend not to have heard.

Dragos Marin wants a proper job in this side

Shifted about, taken off before the hour, asked to do somebody else's running — Dragos Marin has had enough of being useful and would like to be picked. HNK Vukovar 1991 know, and have known for weeks.

A one-man rearguard from Antonio Đaković

There were 15 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Daniel Vinković has seen enough of KAMAZ

It finished 1-1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

The terraces

The spotlight tightens on Antonio Đaković

Every touch is being weighed now, in print and everywhere else. Some players grow into that and some are quietly ruined by it, and nobody knows which in advance.

Squad

Jakov Gurlica knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at HNK Vukovar 1991, and both men came out saying it was fine.

A conversation is coming this week. HNK Vukovar 1991 will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.
