Sloga Doboj and Čelik played out a 0:0 draw in the Premier League's Regular Season round five on Tuesday evening. The match ended without a winner after eighty minutes of play, though both sides had opportunities to break the deadlock. Sloga Doboj came into the fixture sitting fourth in the table with five points from four games, while Čelik occupied sixth place on four points from five matches.
The most notable incident came just before half time when a goal was cancelled following a VAR review. K. Horic of Sloga Doboj received a yellow card in the twenty-ninth minute, and E. Sieh of Čelik was booked later at the eighty-minute mark. To be fair, neither side dominated proceedings for long stretches of the game.
Coaches from both sides made several changes in the second half, with substitutions beginning in the seventieth minute. By then the tactical landscape had shifted as managers looked for something different. Sloga brought on F. Gogic, A. Hrvanovic, J. Cueto, D. Savic, Dani Molina, T. Jovic, R. Corral, A. Masic and S. Faraj during the closing stages.
The statistics tell a story of a match where chances were scarce. Sloga Doboj registered ninety-two attacks with ten shots off target and only two on target, while holding forty-eight percent possession. Čelik managed seventy-two attacks with four shots on target against four off target, and controlled fifty-two percent of the ball. And here's the thing — two shots on target for one side against four for the other, yet neither could find the net.
The result keeps Sloga Doboj in fourth place with five points, maintaining their position ahead of Čelik who remain on four points after five games. Both teams have now drawn in this encounter, and neither side extended or ended any winning runs. The Premier League regular season continues with both sides still within reach of each other in the standings.
