BOMI 7 - 0 Livade (366981383)

Dark skies made the crowd of 7769 at FK BOMI Arena a little nervous, but the rain held off. Patrick Tant was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Paolo Massidda and Roberto Gurrea. Fans of both teams had been eagerly awaiting this Niš derby and were doing their best to outshout their opponents. BOMI had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Sokolović - Vučelić, Kostadinović, Nagy, Baštić - Trifunović, Bošković, Šajatović, Papović - Popović, Pjanović.

Livade decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. Starters: Tadić - Glogovac, Vukotić, Ðapić, Kalezić - Anokić, Bukta, Mirković, Tarabić - Vicković, Atanasković.

BOMI had a chance to take the lead after M. Bošković's dazzling drive up the left, but the opportunity fizzled out as his shot went just over the bar after 8 minutes. After 23 minutes, K. Trifunović came in from the right, feinted, then sped past the off-balance defender to make the score 1 - 0, giving BOMI the lead. After 25 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and M. Bošković gave the BOMI supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 2 - 0. H. Belegija was called on to replace Livade's L. Tarabić after 32 minutes following a nasty collision. The teams went for the halftime break at 2 - 0. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by BOMI, with 61 percent of the ball.

G. Popović increased the lead for BOMI to 3 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! Confident in their lead, BOMI's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of BOMI to 4 - 0 as G. Popović finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. H. Belegija of Livade received a yellow card after 66 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. BOMI increased the lead as L. Pjanović struck to make the score 5 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in BOMI's N. Vučelić increasing the lead to 6 - 0. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, Ð. Ðapić got himself booked. The manager of Livade was not happy. K. Trifunović's tried to storm through the defence after 74 minutes, but M. Kalezić was just too fast to shake off and the rest of the defence got back to cover. BOMI's K. Nagy was shown a yellow card after 78 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. M. Bošković squirmed through their central defence after 82 minutes, increasing the lead to 7 - 0. BOMI enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 67 percent of possession.

The most dominating BOMI player was without a doubt L. Pjanović. On the other hand, R. Sokolović's play was disheartening. Livade's best player was Ž. Glogovac. M. Atanasković was a disappointment, however. The match ends 7 - 0.
