Partizan Belgrade U19 4-2 IMT Novi Beograd U19
Serbian U19 League | 26 August 2026
Partizan Belgrade U19 produced a dominant attacking display at their home academy ground to see off a stubborn IMT Novi Beograd U19 side in a six-goal thriller on a lively afternoon in the Serbian U19 League. The result keeps the Belgrade giants firmly in the upper reaches of the table and underlined their reputation as one of the most dangerous youth attacks in the country.
Fast start sets the tone
Partizan wasted little time in imposing themselves on the contest. With their high press forcing turnovers in midfield, the home side created two clear-cut chances inside the opening fifteen minutes and converted both to give themselves a comfortable early cushion. IMT, to their credit, responded well and reduced the deficit before the half-hour mark with a well-worked move that caught the Partizan backline flat-footed.
The home team though restored their two-goal advantage just before the interval, sending the teams into the break with the score at 3-1 and the match firmly in Partizan’s control.
Second-half fightback and a late sealer
IMT came out with more intensity after the restart and pulled another goal back, turning the contest into a nervy one for the hosts. They pushed forward in search of an equaliser, but Partizan’s organisation and counter-attacking threat kept IMT honest at the back.
In the end, it was Partizan who delivered the decisive blow, scoring a well-taken fourth goal in the closing stages to put the result beyond doubt. The final scoreline of 4-2 reflected the balance of play: Partizan were clinical in key moments, while IMT showed plenty of character but ultimately lacked the defensive discipline to take something from the match.
Key performers and what it means
- Partizan’s front line: The home side’s movement and finishing were central to the win, with each goal coming from a different pattern of attack.
- IMT’s resilience: Even in defeat, IMT showed real promise going forward, with their midfield linking play neatly in spells.
- Table implications: The three points keep Partizan U19 in touch with the league leaders, while IMT Novi Beograd remain a competitive mid-table side with ambitions of climbing higher.
For Partizan Belgrade U19, this was exactly the kind of performance their coaches will want to build on as the Serbian U19 League season takes shape. For IMT Novi Beograd, the challenge now is to turn promising displays into points against the division’s stronger teams.
