Pre-season friendly: Partizan 3-0 Spartak Trnava

Partizan won Slovaks Spartak Trnava 3-0 in a second friendly of Slovenia pre-season camp.

Once again, Partizan had to start with makeshift centre-backs in absence of regulars Vujacic and Sanicanin. Moreover, Ricardo and Zdjelar were sidelined due to knocks while Sehovic recovered from his respective knock sustained in a previous Slovenia pre-season friendly.

Spartak looked better in the opening 20-30 mins and had a clear-cut opportunity on the half-an-hour mark but Jevtovic cleared the ball off the line eventually.

Partizan played much brightly in the last 15-20 mins of the first half and scored the opener on 37 when ball rebounded for Menig inside the box who smashed the ball into the far corner with his left-footed drive.

Lutovac doubled the lead with his header on 45 and after pinpoint long ball from Fejsa.

Keeper Popovic and centre-back Sanicanin were introduced after the break and soon after newcomer Andrade had a great opportunity inside the box but got denied by last gasp block from Spartak defender.

Andrade did score on 59 after a brilliant outside-foot left side cross from Holender – Cape Verdean met the cross on the far post with a neat first-touch to make it 3-0.

Boss Stolica introduced number of Partizan youngsters on the hour and 10 mins later, with young forward Bazdar missing the fine opportunity on 80 – his low angled shot finished just wide of the far post.
