FRANCE

Dieu-Merci Yuma came on in the 72nd minute for Sedan in a 0-0 draw against Reims II on Saturday which sets them 5 points back from promotion with three games left to play (edit: sorry, I misread something; they aren't eliminated yet, although it's not looking too promising now).

 

IRELAND

Tomer Chencinski was on the bench for Shamrock Rovers in a third consecutive upsetting result for the club on Friday, a 1-1 draw against relegation-tipped Limerick. Rovers fans are calling for the manager's head, so hopefully a shake-up could see Tomer get more minutes.

Tyson Farago was also on the bench for St Pat's in a 0-0 draw against Sligo Rovers on Saturday.

 

NEW ZEALAND

Patryk Misik made his fourth consecutive start of the season for Napier City Rovers on Saturday in their first loss of the season, 2-1 to defending champions Western Suburbs. Misik appears to have assisted on the goal off a corner kick.

In the Portugese Liga, Stephen Eustaquio played 90 mins as GD Chaves win 2-1 over Portimonense.  In Turkey Beskitas win 3-1, with Larin staying on the bench. Wagner Love is back from injury, but Atiba not in the squad. 1 point separates the top 3 teams and Besiktas are in 2nd place.

In Norway Valerenga tie Molde 0-0; Adekugbe not in the squad. Must be injured as he has featured in all their games to date 

This match was actually on the Bein Sports Spanish channel. Not sure if they have picked up the Turkish league, but could be an easy way to watch Hutch and Larin.

Vitoria went 90 in 0-0 draw in Poland.

He has been starting the last few games for them. Between him now playing, Hainault starting and hopefully keeping his spot as they move to Bundesliga 2, and some solid veterans in MLS, DeJong and Jakovic. As well as some younger guys, Godihno, Cordova, Adekugbe, and Cordova the back end doesnt seem quite all that horrible.

Polish 4th tier 

- Adrian Gapczyński started and played 77 minutes for Victoria Sulejówek in a 0-0 draw away to Finishparkiet Drwęca Nowe Miasto Lubawskie.

- Michal Misiak came on in the 75th minute for Świt Skolwin (Szczecin) in a 3-0 win away to Wierzyca Pelplin. 

- David Kwiek started and came off in the 90th minute for Resovia in a 1-0 win away to Spartakus Daleszyce.

Resovia and Swit are both currently leading their respective 4th division groups and in the promotion spot.

Borjan started and got another clean sheet for Red Star Belgrade yesterday: 3-0.  Red Star is in the driver's seat for the championship. They are 9 points up with only four games left to play. 

With two more starts Borjan will get the highest amount of minutes he's ever had as a pro starter. Throw in Europa League games and he has eclipsed it already by a mile.

This has been a great move for him: Europa League experience, most likely Serbia League Championship and a spot in the Champions League next year. Assuming the team and Borjan do well next year I could see Red Star selling him before his contract lapses in two years' time. Maybe to a big league -- that would be nice.

I doubt Red Star would sell Borjan under the circumstances you describe. What return would they get for a 32 yr old goalie, maybe a couple million Euros? Would Red Star find a better replacement for the money they'd receive? I think the situation suits both the player and the club and they'd be smart to not mess up a good thing.
