Potkozarje secured a 1:0 victory over Majevica Lopare in the First League of Serbia on Saturday evening. The match took place on 19 September 2026 at 17:30 as part of round six of the domestic campaign. The hosts finally stopped a run of poor results that had left supporters restless.
Potkozarje arrived with mounting concerns after consecutive defeats. They had lost 0:3 away to Laktaši and 0:1 away to Famos Vojkovići before that. Prior to those setbacks they had picked up two wins and a draw, but the momentum had clearly shifted against them.
Majevica Lopare came into the fixture carrying confidence from recent performances. They had won 3:0 against Rudar Prijedor and followed that with a 4:2 victory away at Famos Vojkovići. Their previous league outing saw them edge Zvezda 09 4:1, but they had also shared points in two draws away from home.
And here's the thing — we had backed the visitors to win with 44 per cent confidence before kick-off. The prediction did not materialise. Potkozarje's home advantage and need to respond to recent setbacks appear to have been the deciding factors, something that does not always show up in form guides.
The result gives the hosts a crucial point on the board after their recent struggles. For Majevica, it represents a rare setback in an otherwise productive spell. The First League continues to deliver unexpected outcomes, and this match added another layer to that pattern.
