This season's agony of Sutjeska, which started with a disappointing performance on the European stage, did not end with the triumph over Jezera in the last round, but was only briefly interrupted.

It continued last night in Bar - Mornar came back to life after two initial defeats, won 2:1 and increased the pressure on Nikšić's coach Milija Savović, whose resignation is being demanded by the fans.

What will happen near Bistrica after the new disappointment can only be guessed, especially because after the last waves neither the club's management nor Savović himself (he did not make statements after the victory over Jezera and in the announcement of the match with Mornar).

It is not known what is happening with individual footballers, Julian Nenov, a sound reinforcement from Bulgaria, was not even among the reserves for the second match in a row, which only confirms the rumors that he is on the exit door of the club. Dutchman Tyrone Konrad is back in the team, he started on the bench, came on at half-time - still waiting for his first goal.

Many question marks hover over the champion, but no matter what - an important victory for the Sailors, a team that also entered the season ambitiously. Nikšić was ruled by their former player, CFL legend Marko Ćetković, with a goal and an assist in the beginning of the match.

Sutjesci was also "judged" by its players, with cardinal mistakes that preceded the goals of the sailors. In the 8th minute, Srđan Krstović lost the ball, Baran midfielder Petar Sekulović brilliantly launched Ćetković, who came out alone to Giljen and routinely beat him.

Nine minutes later, a wrong pass by Anto Babić, a superb long ball by Lazar Lambulić, a selfless assist by Ćetković and a goal by Aleksa Maraš - 2:0.

Sutjeska got back into the game ten minutes before the end, with a goal by the recovered Filip Knežević after an assist from Dragan Grivić, but Mornar held on, with a bit of luck - Drinčić had a good chance for Sutjeska in the sixth minute of stoppage time.

Petrovac continued its series of victories - the third triumph in three rounds was registered by the team from the sea, which alone is in first place. Petrovčani did not shine like they did against Arsenal away in the first round, or Budućnost at home in the second round, but they were good enough to take advantage of the home team's mistake and score a goal, and then concentrated enough to preserve the advantage.

The mistake was made by Bjelopolja goalkeeper Sergej Joksimović, who failed to catch the ball in the 18th minute after a not very strong shot by August Korea, Igor Zonjić found himself in the right place and pushed it into the net.

The Bjelopolj team threatened until the end, the defense of Petrovac "coiled", but the home team failed to do what they did against Sutjeska in the first round. Petrovčani could have scored a second goal, Mendi and Zvrko missed the chances after the counterattack.

With a big turnaround in the second half, Jezero defeated Arsenal in Berane (2:1) and achieved its second victory.

The people of Tiv took the lead in the 31st minute, when Jovan Dašić headed in a cross from the right side. The upheaval of Plavljan, and in what way, was directed by Armin Bošnjak and reserve player Edis Redžepagić. First, in the 68th minute, they played a double pass, and the Bosniak sent a "howitzer" that flew over the head of goalkeeper Igor Nikić. In the 79th minute, the roles were reversed, Bošnjak assisted, and Redžepagić scored.
