Sierra Leone’s 19-year-old defender, Alpha Turay, recently joined Serbian side FK Radnički 1923 and scored his first goal on his debut for the youth team on Saturday.
His 27th-minute goal was equalled by Graficar’s in the 44th minute courtesy of Stolić for the visitors.
Despite the difficult weather conditions, the youth teams of Radnički 1923 and Grafičar delivered a dynamic and substantial football performance.
“Diavolčići” seemed to be slightly better rivals, creating more chances than the guests from Belgrade and resembling their performance from the previous season by leaving the Šumadija capital undefeated.
The home team took the lead in the 27th minute when Radojković executed a free kick, and Alpha Turay scored on his debut.
However, the guests managed to equalize before the break, with Stolić scoring after a scramble in front of the Kragujevac team’s goal, checking Đorđe Nedović.
The second half saw an open game with numerous chances on both sides. The home team showed more agility, threatening first through Đalović and then through Dimovski.
In the next round, “Đavolčić” expects to host their peers from OFK Belgrade, and then Mladost from Lučani will visit “Čika Dača”.
