A two week later during an second leg of quarter final match, Salibasic scored his second ever professional hat-trick again in a Malaysia Cup tie against Sime Darby FC 3-1 win as Sarawak FA book their slot into a semi-final.

Salibasic's primary strengths are his work ethic, dribbling, precise short passing, teamwork, and shooting. He is also versatile and is able to play out wide in a three- or four-man midfield or in defensive midfield. His preferred and most effective position is in central midfield, where he is given the license to freely switch between defence and attack instead of concentrating on a single role. During the 2013 season at his club level, he was deployed effectively alongside Junior Eldstål and Cameroon international Guy Bwele due to the fact that Junior was able to interchange quickly between defensive and attacking positions and leave playmaking duties to him.
