Nenad Milijaš's team came out high at the beginning of the game, and their pressure bore fruit already at the end of the third minute, when Tošić stole the ball in the opponent's visible zone, but the visitors' goalkeeper managed to save his net. A new threat to Metalac's goal came already in the 14th minute through the right flank of our team, as a result of the phenomenal cooperation between Tegeltia and Stojković, but the shot from our right back was once again saved by Kovačević.
They used the red and white initiative on the field at the beginning of this game, and Davorin Tošić gave Zvezda the advantage in the 22nd minute of the game. Initially, Manojlović shot phenomenally from a distance and hit the crossbar, and then Tošić sent the game away brilliantly, avoiding offside, and then elegantly shook the visitors' net. The visitors were looking for their chances from the counterattack, but the well-placed defense of Zvezda solved all problems with ease, while in the attack phase, the youth of our club were very specific, and they easily created opportunities in front of Metalac's goal. Tošić caused the most problems for the visiting defense in the first half of this match, and in the 33rd minute he shot strongly from the "second plan", but his shot was saved by Kovačević.
The red and white opened the second half in a great way, increasing the lead to 2:0 from the first attack. Stojković sent a cross from the right flank, and the extremely resourceful Đorđe Ranković positioned himself brilliantly in the opponent's box and shook the Metalac net. Teofilović only two minutes later had a great opportunity for the third goal in transition, but Kovačević managed to save that attempt. In the 63rd minute of the game, reserve player Mladenović tried a shot from the edge of the penalty area, but it was inaccurate. Vasilić had a "100%" chance just a minute later, but the cheerful Kovačević once again saved the Metalac team with a good intervention. Ranković also threatened in the 68th minute after a great "solo" penetration, with a shot from distance, but it was not enough to overcome the visitors' goalkeeper.
Nikola Tasić increased the score to 3:0 in the 77th minute of the game, when he received the ball in the penalty area, and then with several skillful dribbles he strung up the opposing defenders, and then in the end he easily beat the Metalac goalkeeper. The real magic of Vasilij Kostov in the 82nd minute gave Zvezda the fourth goal of the game. He noticed that Zvezda's pearl had enough space around him, and then he sent an indefensible "projectile" from 25 meters towards Metalac's goal and set the final result of the match.
