The future of Bemax is looking for a fourth title

In the last three even years, the trophy intended for the winner of the WABA League ended up in the stands of Buducnost Bemax. Will the tradition, which began in 2016 and was extended in 2018 and 2020, continue? We will find out on Sunday evening, when Vladan Radović's team could play the final against the only team they lost to this season, Celje.

In order for the two best teams from the ex-YU area to collide in the title match, it is necessary that they first do their job in the semi-finals - the women from Podgorica will meet the Bulgarian Montana at 19 pm tomorrow, and the duel between the Slovenian women and the Eagles from Banja Luka starts three hours earlier.

The big advantage of the "blues" will be that the final four will be played in the "Bemax Arena", where they will have great support from the fans. It is expected that there will be 500 children who play in the Bemax league of primary schools, and the club launched a campaign in the past few days in which famous athletes invited fans to support Radović's team.

The Podgorica team was rejuvenated during the break between the two seasons, but played great and deservedly finished the league in first place. He played the last two matches against tonight's rival and routinely won (68:58 and 76:57). In addition, his trump card is the fact that in the "Bemax Arena", in the three seasons since it was built, he has not lost a single one.

"I am very satisfied with the whole season and the progress made by the girls. It is almost unbelievable that we had one loss, even though we lost four players from the five. We beat Montana twice, but it is an experienced team, we have no illusions that it will be easy. I hope that we will win. We will have never before greater support from the stands, and I am glad that many athletes have recognized the importance of the work of these girls in recent days. I hope that this pressure will not sway them, but that it will give them additional motivation," said Radović. .

Montana finished the league part of the competition with three losses, because they also lost against the Eagles, to whom they lost 3rd place due to the worse point difference between them. Now he will try to surprise the favorite.

"Thank you to the organizers for the incredible conditions. It is a great honor for us to be in the final tournament and we want to show the best game. We know that Buducnost is an excellent team, with a lot of young and talented players. They play aggressive basketball, and we want to be a good opponent and let's try to surprise them," said the Bulgarian coach, Manuel Markov.
