The players of Budućnost failed to qualify for the 3rd round of qualification for the Conference League - after the defeat in the first match (1:0), the "blues" played a draw (1:1) with CSKA 1948 last night at the "DG Arena" and participation in the Europe finished in the second round.
Budućnost led from the 65th minute when Perišić scored a goal, then the match went into extra time in which the visitors, after a mistake by the "blues", scored a goal that took them to the next round.
"One hard game, we had more possession, more of the game, chances in the first half. In the second half we attacked, I think from everything shown, we were quite better. Extra time brought us some tactical decline, especially with that goal. We didn't reacted properly, it was difficult to come back afterwards. I can praise the players and the audience. We were eliminated, but in an honorable and brave way," said the coach of Budućnosti for RTCG after the match.
Brnović also commented on the changes he made at halftime, when Adžić and Perišić entered instead of Orahovac and Grbić.
"As for Orahovac, it was a forced substitution, and as for Grbić, it's obvious that the injury left its mark. Perišić came in and we got depth in the second half, aggressiveness and concreteness that resulted in a goal. Unfortunately, we didn't last in extra time. , when we take into account both games, I don't think we deserved to be relegated, in the end it was the little things that decided," Brnović believes.
The coach of Budućnost also referred to the play of young footballers - Đukanović, Bulatović, Perišić...
"That is our future - Đukanović, Andrija Bulatović, Perišić... These are all young guys. Bojović and Vukotić are still young. There is Savović and many other promising kids. For some of them this was a baptism of fire, but they showed that they can be seriously counted on, even in European matches."
Followed by MeridianBet First Montenegrin football league, Budućnost welcomes Petrovac in the first round.
"We are turning to the championship - we know what Buducnosti's goal is. It is the title. We will also have reinforcements, I'm sorry we didn't have them now. Surely we would look different with Pavlović, Šarkić, who played the first minutes tonight, with Mijović, who also is not registered for Europe, with Lambulić, who is a quality stopper," Brnović believes.
He referred to the results of Montenegrin clubs in Europe this summer. Dečić and Mornar continue the European competition.
"It was a beautiful summer for Montenegrin football. We are rooting for Mornar and Dečić - congratulations to them, I hope they will go as far as possible," said Brnović in an interview with RTCG after the match.
Football player Budućnost, Ivan Bojović believes that the team deserved to go further.
"We are satisfied with the game shown, we gave 100 percent. With this wonderful audience that followed us for all 120 minutes, the result did not send us off, but I think we showed a good game, which, I hope, will continue during the championship. I think we "We played well in these two matches, that we can play with every club in Europe, which is our level. I think we deserved to go through. We have something to regret," said Bojović for RTCG.
