Embarrassment in Europe, a desperate start in the championship, and now relegation in the Cup, on the first step - it's not even September yet, and Sutjeska has already experienced a result collapse.
The people of Nikšić said goodbye to the trophy they won in May, and Dečić dethroned them.
At the "DG Arena", in the derby of the first round, Tusan got revenge against Sutjesci for elimination in the semi-finals last season - 1:0. He decided the goal of Draško Božović, who violently hit the near corner of Suad Ličina's goal from a free kick in the 43rd minute.
Even before that, Božović, from a much easier situation, failed to score a goal, but Ličina reacted brilliantly, Stijepović also had a great chance. Dečić was much better in the first half, in the continuation Sutjeska started, but not enough - Dušan Vuković had the best chance in the 79th minute, he was saved by Igor Nikić.
Budućnost, Petrovac, Rudar, Jezero, Mornar, as well as the second division teams Kom and Bokelj also made it to the quarterfinals.
Buducnost dealt with the second division team Podgorica without any problems on their home field (4:0). Adnan Orahovac headed the guests after a corner in the 11th minute, then Petar Grbić entered the scene - he scored in the 23rd minute after a cross from Bojović, and then assisted Sekulić in the 40th to make it 3:0.
In the first minute of stoppage time, Bojović registered another assist, Sekulić another goal.
Rudara started after the first victory in the championship at the weekend, so Iskra was easy prey in Danilovgrad. Marko Simić scored a great goal in the 21st minute, the second goal was scored by the Japanese Arihiro Sentoku in the middle of the period. The defeat of the home team was softened by Vlado Gajić a minute before the end - 1:2.
Petrovac was convincing against Grblje at the stadium "Mitar-Mićo Goliš" - 3:0. A great goal by Aldin Adžović in the 14th minute and two routine realizations by reserve player Slobodan Babić later on were enough to pass.
With goals from Petr Vukčević, Petr Barco, Vladimir Perišić and Andrija Radonjić, Kom beat Berane 4:0 in the second division derby, while Bokelj defeated the second division team - Mladost DG, and that too away (2:1).
All the goals fell in the first half, Baba Musa Alasan put Kotorani in the lead, Aleksa Maraš answered, but Dragan Mirković made the final 43:1 in the 2rd.
Jezero and Mornar qualified for the quarterfinals in the first games played today.
Plavljani beat Tivat's Arsenal, the finalist from last season, in Berane, 1:0. The decision was made by the reserve player, the Brazilian - Lukas Barreto scored from the left side in the 88th minute, to the great celebration of Ivan Brnović's team, which is tied for first place in the championship as well.
Mornar beat Jedinstvo Franca for the second time in just four days - this time away, in the Cup, after Saturday's championship victory at home (4:3). This time, no goal was seen, only one goal was decided - Dejan Račić scored it in the 19th minute, after a counterattack, assisted by Kris Ondongo.
