Sutjeska will on Saturday have the first match point for the football trophy – the undisputed leader defeated Rudar with 2:1 in the match delayed from the 25th round of the First Montenegro Telekom football league, now with 20 points ahead of the next team with seven rounds to go.
Sutjeska will be away at Iskra, and Budućnost will be away at Mladost, the same team they lost to on Wednesday in the first Montenegro Cup semi-final round.
“I wish not to discuss this now,” said Nikola Rakojević, Sutjeska coach. “I wish not to think about it that way, it’s all good, we’ve come close, but when it’s over, we’ll talk.”
The future champion took the lead against Rudar in the 7th, while Armin Bošnjak equalized in the 31st minute. The winning goal came from Milutin Osmajić in the 52nd minute.
While Sutjeska is closing in on the title, Rudar is behind in the struggle to push to the European scene – they have six points less than Grbalj, which is in fourth place, but also only two points more than Kom, which is in the barrage zone.
“We couldn’t do better after making so many mistakes in defence and midfield. Sutjeska played a good game, but punished out mistakes. We didn’t deserve a better score. Nothing is lost, there are still 21 points to be won. I will try to bolster the team to give more in the coming match,” said Miodrag Vukotić, Rudar coach.
