Dinamo Jug secured a 3-2 victory over Naftagas in the third round of the Prva Liga, played on 15 August 2026. The result moves the visitors into better ground while the hosts remain rooted in 13th place with five points from seven games. To be fair, the match had its moments, though the turning point came late on.
M. Nikolasevic struck first for the visitors in the 74th minute, capitalising on a defensive lapse that Naftagas had paid for throughout the second half. By then, the hosts had been chasing the game since the break, but their urgency only created space behind them. The goal shifted the momentum, even if the crowd refused to go away.
M. Savanovic added the winner eight minutes later, slotting home to end a barren spell for his side. The support of the fans could be called devoted, but that is an assessment, not a fact. The fact is that Dinamo Jug kept knocking on the door until the finish, and eventually found the net twice in quick succession.
There were card incidents scattered through the contest. U. Vukicevic picked up a yellow before half-time, while M. Goronjic, V. Siladji and M. Stevanovic all received cautions in the second period. Substitutions included M. Kovacevic at 55 minutes and a double change for Dinamo Jug at 62, with S. Trajkovic and S. Ilic both coming on. Naftagas brought on U. Vukicevic at 81, perhaps looking for something different.
The result means Naftagas stay bottom-half with just one win from seven matches. Dinamo Jug, meanwhile, have kept three clean sheets on the spin, though this was not one of them. The table goes out of the window in these games, but points matter when the season stretches on.
