Only a draw as Rabotnicki can’t break Bregalnica’s defense

Rabotnicki couldn’t get a victory in the 10. round of the First league, only drawing 0-0 at the home match against Bregalnica. Coach Igor Angelovski hand problems prior to this match, being forced to play Milovan Petrovic in the heart of the defense following the injuries of Milan Ilievski and Leon Najdovski. The absence od Petrovic from the midfield of Rabotnicki was noticed, as the home side lacked creativity in organizing the attacks. Young Emir Sahiti made his debut for Rabotnicki, playing for over 60 minutes before being substituted.

Rabotnicki had the first shot with Ristevski coming close after the free kick from Vujcic, but the ball went just wide. Herera had a good try from free kick, but Zahov saved his shot. Bregalnica fought back and created the first chance in the 34. minute, but Bozinovski saved the shot from Nikolaj Hristov. Our goalkeeper was on top again at the beginning of the second half, saving Nacev’s shot from 20 metres.

Rabotnicki was far better team at the final 30 minutes, creating a few chances, but Ristevski’s header went just wide, while Zahov managed to save Altiparmakovski’s shot in the 89 minute, making sure this match ends with a draw.
