Next match: Gorica – Osijek

We are leaving behind the weeks of hard work and preparation during which we created and trained a new team. We have entered the competitive rhythm of training ahead of the official start of the new season, which awaits us this coming weekend. The Osijek team will play its first match in the fight for championship points on Saturday, August 1, away to Gorica, starting at 9pm. We know that there have been many changes in the playing staff, many young players, most of whom are from our Football School, were given the opportunity through control matches, and over the past period, unity and a recognizable style of play have been built. Everyone in the Club, and of course the White and Blue fans, are now impatiently awaiting the upcoming challenges because every new season brings new energy, new challenges, as well as a new opportunity to prove themselves.

It is clear that we are waiting for 90 or so demanding minutes against our Saturday host, but also the first opportunity to translate all the positive things into what is now becoming the most important thing, namely a sporting fight for every point on the field. There is no shortage of motivation this time either, the desire and determination to open the season to the satisfaction of all those who are with NK Osijek at heart. We rely on what we have done so far, on the potential of this (new) team and the energy we have felt since the first gathering. Also on self-confidence, faith in the process we have started, the direction we are going in and the desire for progress. In this context, our team wants to present itself at its first away game of the season, believing that we will have significant fan support from our Cohort from the start in Velika Gorica. The guys on the field will primarily try to repay the favor with fighting spirit and approach, which is always one of the important prerequisites for a positive outcome of the match.
