Partizan were beaten 2:1 (2:1) by Mačva from Šabac in the 15th round of the Mozzart Bet Serbian SuperLiga.

Aleksandar Stanojević’s side produced a better performance in the first half, not only because Zubairu Ibrahim managed to equalise for the Black and Whites in the 16th minute, but also because of the energy and dynamism they displayed during those 45 minutes. Mario Jurčević also hit the woodwork, while Mačva goalkeeper Vukašin Jovanović was called into action on several other occasions.

However, Partizan lacked concentration both in attack and in defence, with both goals conceded resulting from poor communication along the back line. This was also the main criticism head coach Aleksandar Stanojević directed at his players after the match.

The experienced coach tried to raise the team's performance to an even higher level with his second-half substitutions, but once again, territorial dominance failed to produce a goal. The visitors from Šabac retreated deep into their own half, while the Black and Whites struggled to break through Mačva's defensive wall.

Partizan will now have a break for international fixtures, during which they will play a friendly match against PAOK in Thessaloniki.
