A year and two months ago, Anđelko Jovanović committed a foul that set back his career, and almost ruined his career, and tonight he became a member of the national team of Montenegro.
In September 2019, the Podgorica midfielder left the preparations of the young team, during the preparations for the match with the Faroe Islands, asked the coach Miodrag Vukotić to release him from his obligations, and as the reason he stated that he noticed during training that he was not in the best combination for the first team.
Punishment soon arrived - The FSCG Disciplinary Committee fined him a ten match ban for that offence.
The punishment was mild, because according to Article 83 of the FSCG Disciplinary Rules, he could have been suspended for 12 matches or up to six months.
The young, 20-year-old midfielder served his sentence, played well in his club, and it seems that he learned his lesson, so he first received an invitation from Faruk Hadžibegić for the A selection, and then made his first appearance in the strongest Montenegrin team - he played the last 15 - about a minute against Kazakhstan.
