On the up
Dragan Nacevski's strike on 33 minutes was enough to lift the Skopje club a point above long-time leaders FK Belasica GC, who went down 2-0 at FK Cementarnica 55.
Belasica beaten
Belasica were made to pay for a poor performance by first-half goals from the Brazilian Vandair and Dejan Dimitrovski. It could have been worse for Belasica as the home team missed a series of chances in the second half.
Best of three
FK Pobeda in third place beat bottom side FK Kumanovo 2-1 with goals from Blagoje Gesoski and Aleksandar Poapovski sandwiching an Aleksandar Stojanovski effort for the home team.
Easy for Rabotnicki
Meanwhile, FK Rabotnicki consolidated fourth place in the table with a 4-1 win against FK Tikves. Nikola Karcev, Miki Lazarevski, Goran Zdravkov and Pedrag Dinkic were the home scorers with Antonio Tasev replying for the visitors.
Away win
Elsewhere, FK Napredok defeated another struggling side, FK Pelister, 2-0 away from home thanks to strikes from Goce Tosevski and Goran Najdevski.
