How long will you have to take a break, the second game of the playoff for the title is in five days, the national team gathering is coming soon, the two-match playoff for the World Cup with Spain, on May 8 and 12?
– We will see in training how it will look. I sincerely hope that by Monday and the second match with Metaloplastika, everything will be as it should be, and also when it comes to the national team.

Metalloplastika has the advantage of winning from the first match (32:27), your team had as many as five goals advantage in the first half?
– We played a great first half. Unfortunately, I was injured at the end of the first half and could not help further… In the second half, we were defocused, we were a little worn out from the cup final, there was a lot of consumption in that game as well, and everything simply went to the opponent’s mill .
Nevertheless, the captain of the black and whites believes that his team can win the championship at Banjica:
– We chose the harder way, but it might be more interesting that way. It doesn’t matter that the third game is in Šabac, and the cup was in Novi Sad, so we succeeded. I believe that we will win the third game, and then the final – will be optimistic Zecevic.
