As part of the 26th round of the championship, the teams of Tikvesh and Sileks played their match today in Kavadarci.
Sileks emerged victorious, securing an emphatic, convincing and deserved 0-3 triumph.
From the very start of the match, it was clear which direction it would take. After just three minutes, the visitors hit the post, while in the 17th minute, following a well-taken corner, Pireš opened the scoring with a header. This was the Portuguese player's tenth goal of the season.
At the other end, Stojanov had an opportunity, but Džekov reacted well and in time. At the very end of the first half, in the 41st minute, following Darko Dodev's assist from the left, Adi Alić was precise from the six-yard box to give his team a 2-0 lead.
Tikvesh tried to reduce the visitors' lead in the second half, but failed to do so. Ackovski had an attempt from the edge of the penalty area, but Džekov was once again equal to the task. Ten minutes before the end, Aleksandar Mishov had a one-on-one opportunity in front of Stevkovski, but tried to lob him and did so poorly.
Tikvesh's chance through Golubov could be described as the most serious one, but Džekov, like the entire Sileks team, was having one of those days in Kavadarci. Finally, in the 85th minute, Velinovski's left-footed shot from the edge of the penalty area left Stevkovski rooted to the goal line, as he could only watch the ball enter his goal. The third goal for the Kratovo side also set the final score of the match.
With these three points, Sileks move to 46 points and fourth place, while Tikvesh remain on their previous tally of 37 points and one place lower.
This was Sileks' third triumph over this opponent this season.
