Famós Vojkovići saw off Romanija Pale 3:1 in the sixth round of the First League on Saturday afternoon. The hosts wrapped up three points at home, rounding off a difficult patch of results with a win that matters.
And here's the thing — the prediction was for the home side, and it came through. Not that anyone expected anything different once the first half settled, but the confidence was real. By then, Romanija had already looked like they were chasing the game.
The visitors carried some momentum from their 2:0 win over Zviježda 09, but that form evaporated quickly. They had lost 0:3 to Kozara Gradiška just days earlier, and this performance suggested they hadn't recovered. The hosts, meanwhile, were coming off a 0:2 defeat and a 2:4 loss — results that had people asking questions.
Three goals separated the sides, and that margin tells you everything about the gap in intensity. Romanija pulled one back late enough to make the final whistle feel longer than it was, but the contest had been decided well before that moment. The clean-sheet run came to an end for the hosts, but they still took maximum points.
To be fair, Romanija had won two of their last six and lost four, so they weren't exactly a side in crisis. But they were second to everything today, and the hosts sensed blood. One mistake ends it, and the visitors made more than one.
This result moves Vojkovići further from the bottom of the table, or at least gives them something to build on. Six games in, and the season is still wide open. But for now, the home side has pulled away from trouble — even if only by a point or two.
