Istogu 03 Secure Convincing 3-0 Win Over KF Behar

FC Istogu 03 welcomed KF Behar to Parku I Vitomiricës on 8 November 2025, with kick-off at 1:30pm, in a tightly contested 11-a-side fixture. The home side emerged dominant, securing a comprehensive 3-0 victory after 90 minutes plus added time, much to the delight of the 50 spectators in attendance.

Istogu 03 lined up in a classic 4-3-3 formation, deploying four defenders at the back, three midfielders centrally, and a front three tasked with stretching the opposition defence and creating goal-scoring opportunities. The defensive line was expected to maintain solidity and discipline, while the midfield trio would control possession and link play effectively between defence and attack. Up front, the wide forwards and central striker were charged with pressing the KF Behar defence and capitalising on chances. No substitutes were named for this fixture.

The match began with both teams probing cautiously, but it was clear from the outset that Istogu 03 intended to impose their rhythm on proceedings. The home side’s defensive organisation limited KF Behar’s attacking threat, with the visitors struggling to carve out meaningful chances in the opening 45 minutes. The referee, Edmond Gjikokaj, officiated with a steady hand, maintaining control throughout the first half.

At the interval, the score remained goalless, reflecting a balanced but tense opening period. However, Istogu 03’s control of the midfield and their ability to press high suggested that the breakthrough was imminent.

The second half saw Istogu 03 raise their intensity and take command of the match. Their attacking trio began to find pockets of space, testing the KF Behar goalkeeper with increasing frequency. The home side’s persistence paid off as they found the net three times, each goal a testament to their tactical discipline and clinical finishing.

Eldar Kelmendi was the standout performer, earning the player of the match accolade for his influential role in midfield. His ability to dictate tempo, distribute the ball with precision, and contribute defensively was pivotal in securing the victory.

KF Behar were unable to respond effectively to Istogu 03’s dominance, and despite their efforts, they failed to register a goal. The final whistle confirmed a well-deserved 3-0 triumph for the hosts, who will take great confidence from this performance as they look ahead to their next fixtures.
