Sports Results

We have had a busy sports weekend, which will be remembered for Hajduk’s first defeat of the spring. In round 21 of the Serbian League, Vojvodina group, the team from Kula lost to Dinamo 2:0 away in Pančevo. The unwritten rule of football was confirmed: if you fail to take your chances, you will be punished. Hajduk created several chances but failed to convert them on a few occasions, through Zličić, Jovanić and Davidov, and the home team scored in the closing stages and won. Hajduk 1912 are currently second in the table with 45 points and a game in hand. In the next round, scheduled for Wednesday, the team from Kula host Radnički from Nova Pazova.

Crvenka’s handball players lost 31:23 away to Jedinstvo in Novi Bečej in the 17 round of the Super B League. Crvenka were again not at full strength, with back Egic missing, and while the team had energy, they stayed in the game, as confirmed by the halftime score, with the hosts leading 15:13. But as the match went on, Crvenka ran out of energy and ultimately suffered a convincing defeat. Bošković was Crvenka’s top scorer, with 6 goals. Crvenka are bottom of the table with 8 points, and the match of the season awaits them in the next round. Loznica, their only rival in the battle to avoid relegation, are coming to visit, and if Crvenka win, they will hand the wooden spoon to Loznica.
