Buducnost secured its third win of the current season in the MeridianBet First Football League, maintaining a solid 12-point lead over second-placed Petrovac even after the 22nd round.

In a match played in Gorica, the league leaders bested Bokelj SBBet with a score of 3:1, despite being down a player from the 14th minute after Dejan Perović scored for the visitors.

The “Blues” mounted relentless assaults on the Kotor goal, and by the 34th minute, Marko Čavor was shown a second yellow card, leaving Bokelj with a challenging task to uphold their advantage or avoid defeat…

The situation grew more precarious when Buducnost equalized deep into stoppage time with a goal from Andrija Bulatović. The home team took the lead at the start of the second half when Petar Grbić scored to complete the turnaround.

It could have been 2:1 just moments prior, but officials failed to acknowledge that Oliver Šarkić’s shot had crossed the goal line—he had replaced Andrija Bulatović at halftime.

After that, Buducnost took complete control of the game, with Andrej Kostić sealing the deal as an accidental scorer following a defensive blunder from Bokelj.

On the other hand, Petrovac lived up to its favorite status by defeating Jezero at home with a score of 2:1, thereby solidifying its hold on second place.

The Petrovac squad has now achieved three consecutive victories in this phase of the season, totaling four if including the Cup matches.

The home side drew first blood when Bašić assisted Golubović, who scored to give them the lead.

Just seven minutes later, visitors equalized with a goal from Perović, who, shortly after, missed a penalty that could have put Jezero ahead.

After a timeout, Petrovac was awarded a penalty, and Bašić took advantage, continuing his scoring streak to set the final score.

Sutjeska finally broke free from a crisis by beating Arsenal 2:0 in Nikšić, marking their first goals and win of the second half of the season.

The three points for Milija Savović’s side came from new signings—Boris Kopitović and Aleksandar Desančić, who scored merely two minutes apart…

In the first half, both teams had two goal-scoring opportunities, with the visitors first threatening when Abdulahi shot wide, and then Ćetković sending a long-range effort over the bar.

Sutjeska squandered significant chances towards the end of the first half—Kalezić struck from the left, Zogović made the save, and the ball found its way to Tošković, who hit the crossbar.

The match quieted down until the 70th minute when Sutjeska earned a corner. Desančić delivered a cross that reached Janjić at the far post. The young player from Nikšić delivered a pass into the box where Kopitović scored.

Two minutes later, the final tally was confirmed—Sutjeska broke on a counter, Kalezić sent the ball into the box, and although Đinović’s reaction was awkward, Desančić was in the perfect position to score.

Dečić AdmiralBet also recorded their first victory of the season, defeating Mornar (2:0) in Tuzi. Dečić dominated the match and could have scored earlier, but young Mark Đokaj squandered a great chance, as did Matić and Sekulović.

After Đurišić was sent off, Dečić capitalized, scoring both goals while having a player advantage.

Both goals came from substitutes — Striković netted in the 75th minute thanks to an assist from Pulej, and then in the second minute of additional time, he also assisted Endiaje after scoring.

Jedinstvo-Franca secured a crucial win in their fight against relegation, triumphing over Otrant-Olimpik in a derby match in Bijelo Polje. The home team’s scorers were Mušović and Korać.
