The nobles were duly missed in this match, but in stoppage time they came up with a goal worth a huge point. Let’s go in order.
They had an excellent chance at the start of the match. Ivančić crossed from the left side, Bilbija was only a few meters from the goal and shot, but Hedl defended brilliantly.
The penalty came in the 11th minute. After a cross from the right, Schaub scores a goal with his head. The ball went off the post and into the net – 0:1, a cold thump at the Pod Bijelim brijegom stadium.
This was followed by hurricane attacks from Zrinjski, who also had a great opportunity in halftime. Dujmović headed from close range, but the Rapid goalkeeper saved his shot.
An absolute zicer then missed Bilbi in the 58th minute. Pranjić passed on the left side and served the captain perfectly, but Bilbija failed to score a goal for Plemić from half a meter. Failure of the career of the legend of the club.
As the match progressed, increasing nervousness crept in among the Zrinjski players, while Rapid defended frantically against the onslaughts of the home team.
The compensation this time was lucky for the champion of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Substitute Abramović threw in, and Cvetković passed the ball into his own net – 1:1. It is also the final result. The nobles go to the knockout stage!
