Grbalj and Mladost played out a goalless draw in the Second League on Sunday, with both sides walking away from the Regular Season third round with a single point each. The match finished 0:0 in Podgorica, leaving the standings largely unchanged for the top two teams.
Before kickoff, Mladost sat at the summit with seven points from three games — two wins and a draw. Grbalj had collected five points in the same number of outings, sitting fifth after one victory and two draws. A point would keep the gap between them manageable.
And here's the thing about a zero-zero — neither side had enough to break the deadlock. Mladost maintained their unbeaten start, extending their run to three matches, while Grbalj added another clean sheet to their recent record. By then, both teams knew they were still in contention.
Grbalj's recent form showed resilience — a 2:1 win over Mogren, a 1:1 draw with Zeta, and earlier results against Bokelj and Internacional Podgorica. Mladost had been more assertive, beating Kom 2:1 and Lovćen 3:0, with a 3:1 victory over Berane and a goalless draw with Rudar.
To be fair, this result keeps the table where it was. Mladost remain top with seven points, Grbalj fifth with five, and neither side has lost yet this season. Three games in, and the Second League is shaping up as a tight affair.
