Bashkimi and Vardar shared the points in a match filled with numerous twists and no fewer than six goals.<\/p>\n<p>The hosts started the match better and created serious pressure from the very beginning. Luis Ribeiro threatened Vardar\u2019s goal dangerously on two occasions, but goalkeeper Taleski was equal to the task and did not allow any surprises. However, on Bashkimi\u2019s third attempt, they took the lead they wanted \u2014 after an excellently taken corner, Fati Ismaili rose highest and found the net with a precise header to make it 1-0. Soon after, Maimona had an excellent opportunity to score a second, but Taleski once again saved the visitors with a confident intervention.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1834\" height=\"1326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2.jpeg 1834w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2-300x217.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2-1024x740.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2-768x555.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2-1536x1111.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-2-18x12.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1834px) 100vw, 1834px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At the other end, Vardar tried to respond when Omeragi\u0107 controlled the ball well and played in Spahiu, whose shot went over the crossbar. The punishment arrived in the 32nd minute. After a swift counterattack, Rashid skilfully rounded the advancing Taleski and sent the ball through Najdovski\u2019s legs and into the net for a convincing 2-0. However, the visitors managed to get back into the game quickly before the break: in the 38th minute, Jankulov broke forward and delivered a cross, while the ball cleared by the home defence reached Babunski, who coolly found the unprotected corner to make it 2-1.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13327\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1581\" height=\"1082\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4.jpeg 1581w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4-300x205.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4-1024x701.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4-768x526.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4-1536x1051.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ffm.mk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/bashkimi-4-18x12.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1581px) 100vw, 1581px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The second half began with strong pressure from Vardar, and Babunski was the first to launch a series of threats with a powerful long-range shot. Bashkimi could have restored their two-goal advantage in the 66th minute, but Ristovski\u2019s shot was stopped by the inspired Taleski. That proved to be a prelude to a major turnaround, as Vardar stunned the hosts in just two minutes.
