Association football

Association football

Association football, more commonly known as football or soccer, is a team sport played between two teams of 11 players who primarily use their feet to propel a ball around a rectangular field called a pitch. The objective of the game is to score more goals than the opposite team by moving the ball beyond the goal line into a rectangular-framed goal defended by the opposing side. Traditionally, the game has been played over two 45-minute halves, for a total match time of 90 minutes. With an estimated 250 million players active in over 200 countries and territories, it is considered the world's most popular sport.

Forward (association football)

Forward (association football)

Forwards are outfield positions in an association football team who play the furthest up the pitch and are therefore most responsible for scoring goals as well as assisting them. As with any attacking player, the role of the forward relies heavily on being able to create space for attack.

Club career

A product of Osijek academy, Primorac joined their first team squad in the 2003–04 season and appeared in 17 matches for the club in his first top-flight season. He went on to establish himself as a regular member of Osijek's starting eleven and he appeared in a total of 136 Prva HNL matches and scored 25 goals before being released from the club in January 2010.[1] He was then picked up by Dinamo Zagreb almost immediately, and he signed for the Blues on a free transfer in February 2010. Primorac also played with NK Karlovac and NK Istra 1961.[2]

In 2013, Primorac signed a contract with Sime Darby F.C., then a Malaysia Premier League club. He finished the 2013 season as top scorer in the league, as Sime Darby gained promotion to 2014 Malaysia Super League as runners-up behind Sarawak FA.[3] At the end of the season, he changed club to play with Malaysia Super League club PKNS F.C.[4][5]

It was one of the 14 Malaysian state teams of the Malaysian football structure before the Malaysian football league demanded all teams competing in the country's top two leagues to be run as or changed to professional clubs by 2021. It is also important to note that Sarawak FA is a football team that is not run as a professional football club, but rather a team that was funded and run by a Malaysian state football association that relied mostly on state government grants. How the team was run was much like all the other Malaysian state football teams competing in the old Malaysian football system before the year 2021 too. To outsiders who are not familiar with the Malaysian football system or league, the team was simply known as Sarawak FA because it was run by the Football Association of Sarawak (FAS). To those who follow Malaysian football on the other hand, the team was simply known as Sarawak or the Sarawak State Football Team.
