Crvenka beat Hajduk Junior by 3:1

The third round of the Sombor District League was marked by a local derby played in Crvenka on Friday, in which Crvenka defeated Hajduk Junior from Kula 3:1. It was a match worthy of teams playing at a higher level. Crvenka took the lead through Radulović, then captain Milan Subotić made it 2:0 with a free kick, before Filip Vujić reduced the home side’s lead to 2:1 from the penalty spot; that was the score at halftime. In the dying minutes of the match, Maleš scored Crvenka’s third goal, securing a deserved third consecutive win. Lipar beat Stari Grad from Bačka Palanka 2:1 in front of their home fans, but had to work hard after the visitors took the lead.
