Dečić did not disappoint against the Welsh - unfortunately, all this is realistic and expected, the rival who is also the favorite follows

Dečić may have done well in the draw when, in the competition of Karabagh, Slovan, Ludogorets and Helsinki, he drew the team of TNS, the champion of Wales - it turned out to be "good" to lose the doubleheader by three goals.

The Welsh advanced with a total score of 4:1. After the lesson in combativeness, running, aggression, duel-play and competitive football that they received from their rivals in the first match (3:0), Milorad Peković's team corrected the impression to some extent in the rematch with a goal for 1:1 in the sequel.

And those who say that this is a fiasco, disappointment, humiliation are wrong. In fact, the real state of affairs of Montenegrin club football, which has been lagging behind modern European trends for several years now, is that this balance of power - the end result - is quite expected. And that, in fact, is the worst possible thing that "hits" our football. They failed the criteria so much that nothing is expected anymore. Any fixes?

According to the UEFA coefficient, the Montenegrin league is currently the third from the bottom, only Gibraltar and San Marino are weaker. If Budućnost and Sutjeska received lessons from the teams from the Faroe Islands and Andorra last season, why would Dečić's relegation from the champions of Wales, a country whose national team is almost a regular participant in major competitions, a team that plays Europe every summer, be a disappointment?

- It was not easy to chase a 3:0 deficit, but we tried, in difficult weather and against a good rival. We played with a dose of risk against a team with a lot of fast players. I don't know how it would have ended if we had taken the lead in the first half. I hope we will learn lessons - said Pekovic.

Tuzani continue their mission in the 2nd round of qualification for the League of Conferences, and the rival is the champion of Georgia, Dinamo Batumi.

Once again, expectations are not high - the rival is the favorite to advance.

- It means that we will play at least two more European matches. We made our debut in the qualification for LŠ, that's what we worked for. The mistakes from the first game cost us, where the result was worse than the game - said Pekovic.
