Siroki Brieg secured a 74:66 victory over Gradina Tesanj in the Bosnian Championship on Monday evening, 5 October 2026. The home side moved further clear in second place, extending their winning momentum at the Stark Arena.
The visitors came expecting to challenge, but Siroki's defensive structure held firm through the opening exchanges. Gradina Tesanj found themselves chasing the game after conceding early possession advantages. By then, the home side had established a rhythm they would not relinquish.
Siroki Brieg's record now stands at twenty wins from twenty-four matches, with four defeats accounting for the remainder. Their recent form has been mixed — they defeated Borac Čačak 87:81 last week, but suffered two heavy losses to Igokea in May. Against Jahorina and Borac Banja Luka earlier in the season, they showed what they are capable of when everything clicks.
The final margin of eight points tells only part of the story. Gradina Tesanj kept knocking on the door in the closing stages, but could not find the breakthrough that might have shifted momentum. Siroki worked their short corners effectively, turning defensive rebounds into quick transitions.
The result leaves Siroki Brieg firmly planted in second position. With twenty points separating them from the top, there is still work to be done, but this performance suggested they are not running out of games. Gradina Tesanj now face a difficult run if they want to change their fortunes.
