Radnik Hadžići led twice but were undone by a late double from E. Hasukic, as GOŠK Gabela claimed a 3-2 victory at Gradski stadion. The result broadly aligned with the pre-match read from the Lemeister model, which had given the visitors a 40% win probability and favoured them narrowly. Radnik had been a live underdog with a 30% chance, but the data suggests the outcome was ultimately decided by a combination of the visitors' finishing and the home side's inability to protect a two-goal lead, with no other match statistics recorded.
Radnik Hadžići started brightly and took the lead in the 13th minute through A. Piric, who found the net without an assist. The goal settled the home side, and they doubled their advantage early in the second half when B. Sehic scored in the 52nd minute, again unassisted. At that stage, with a two-goal cushion and the clock ticking past the hour, Radnik looked well placed to secure a valuable three points in their push for safety. Neither side made any substitutions, which suggests both managers trusted their starting line-ups to see out the contest.
GOŠK Gabela responded immediately, reducing the deficit in the 64th minute through G. Coko, whose goal brought the visitors back into the contest. The goal gave the visitors momentum, and they began to assert greater control as the half wore on, forcing Radnik onto the back foot. The pivotal moment arrived in the 89th minute, when E. Hasukic converted a penalty to level the scores, a significant psychological blow to the home side. The absence of any bookings in the match suggests it was not a particularly physical contest, with the outcome decided by composure rather than aggression.
The drama did not end there. Deep into stoppage time, Hasukic struck again with a normal goal in the 90th minute to complete a remarkable turnaround. His two goals in the space of two minutes transformed the contest, leaving Radnik with no time to respond. The home defence, which had held firm for an hour, was unable to contain the visitors' late surge. Hasukic's contribution was clearly the defining factor; his composure from the penalty spot and his ability to find a decisive second goal in added time marked him out as the match-winner.
With no match ratings or detailed statistics available to assess individual performances, the narrative must rest entirely on the scoring timeline and the players named. For Radnik, Piric and Sehic had given their side the platform, but the inability to protect a two-goal lead proved costly. For GOŠK Gabela, Coko's goal was the catalyst, but Hasukic's double was the decisive intervention. The absence of any assists for the first four goals indicates individual efforts, while the penalty for the fifth demonstrated the visitors' ability to create pressure in the box.
The defeat leaves Radnik Hadžići still searching for consistency in the 1st League - FBiH, having let a commanding position slip. The result is particularly damaging given the stage of the season, with round 25 representing a critical juncture in the campaign. For GOŠK Gabela, the victory represents a significant statement of resilience, taking three points from a match that seemed lost. The Lemeister model had favoured the away side narrowly, and the result aligned with that read, though few would have predicted the dramatic late climax that delivered it. The manner of the win will give the visitors confidence, while Radnik will need to address their late-game fragility.
