Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Artem Kontsevoj’s 120th-minute strike sealed a 2-1 win for BK Maxline Vitebsk over FK Borac Banja Luka in the UEFA Europa Conference League Qualification Round 3, the midfielder’s goal capping a dramatic extra-time turnaround after Denilho Cleonise had opened the scoring on the stroke of half-time. The Belarusian side edged a tight contest that required the full 120 minutes, with the match hanging in the balance throughout.

Cleonise’s 45th-minute opener was cancelled out by Matej Deket’s 103rd-minute equaliser, setting up a frantic finale in which Kontsevoj, who had already been the game’s most influential figure, popped up at the death to settle it. Seven yellow cards punctuated a scrappy affair, with Aleksandar Mesarović and Valeri Bocherov booked for the hosts inside the opening 41 minutes while Viktor Rogan, Amer Hiroš, Bart Meijers, Nemanja Jakšić and Damir Hrelja all went into the book for the visitors.

BK Maxline Vitebsk shaded possession with 53% against 47% and matched Banja Luka’s four corners apiece, but the numbers tell of a side that controlled the second half without ever running away with it, outplayed for long spells yet decisive when it mattered. Kontsevoj was the standout with a 9.67 rating, his goal and midfield industry earning him the honours. CheckLive’s model rated Banja Luka marginally ahead, but the result did not confirm it, with the live flow ultimately favouring the home side.
