If Budućnost remains without a title this season, then it could look for reasons for that in the matches against Mladost DG.
Tonight, in the 28th round of the Meridianbet First Montenegrin Football League, the team from Donja Gorica defeated the current champions at the City Stadium (2:1) and defeated them for the second time this season.
In four meetings this season against Mladost, Budućnost recorded only one victory, one match ended in a draw, and after tonight's setback, Mladen Milinković's team has three points less than Dečić, who after the triumph in Bijelo Polje over Jedinstvo (2:0) assumed a leadership position.
Tuzani are definitely in a better situation ahead of the derby, which will be played next Tuesday at the "DG Arena".
MARAS SHOCKED THE BLUES, MATIC CONTINUES THE SERIES
Bubućnost was the first to score against Mladost. After a long ball from Orahovac, Igor Ivanović assisted with his head, and Đorđe Despotović caught a volley from the edge of the penalty area and scored a nice goal in the fourth minute.
Before Despotović's goal, Suad Ličina's net was shaken by Ivanović, but the goal was disallowed due to offside, while Aleksa Maraš threatened on the other side.
It was Maraš who was the director of the great turnaround and victory of Mladost. Five minutes after Budućnosti's goal, the visitors' footballer equalized, beating Pavličić on the second attempt, and for the second goal and a total reversal in the 31st minute, one shot was enough - for the 11th goal of this season! Only Žarko Korać from Jedinstvo (15) scored more on the list of scorers.
Mladost was more dangerous in the first half, Maraš was in a very good mood, he had a chance for the third goal, but it was saved by Pavličić, who stopped Anđelko Jovanović.
Until the end of the first half, Buducnost had chances through Miloš Raičković and Petr Grbić, but Ličina's net did not shake.
In the continuation, Budućnost had the initiative, after a good ball by Vasilij Adžić, Despotović and Ivanović failed to put it into the net, and Balša Sekulić and Ivan Bojović were inaccurate.
However, the visitors had the best chance in the second half - a big mistake was made by Budućnosti goalkeeper Pavličić, he lost the ball outside his penalty area, but Jovanović did not punish him. After his shot, the ball went over the goal, and Boris Došljak did not use the opportunity in the finish.
And on the eve of the derby in the next round, the leader is Dečić, who easily defeated Jedinstvo in Bijelo Polje - 2:0.
Tuzani scored a goal each in both halves, and they took the lead in the 21st minute - the visiting team's attack flowed from the right side, Draško Božović crossed, and Bojan Matić scored the goal with a header from ten meters away.
Matić arrived in Dečić in the winter transfer window, in the second part of the season he played nine games and scored seven goals. After this match, the former Partizan striker ranks sixth on the scorers' list.
The final score in Bijelo Polje was set at the beginning of the second half. In the 46th minute, Matić combined with Oliver Šarkić, who threw the ball into the empty space, and Andrej Bajović came in from the second plan and placed the ball into the net with his left foot.
