The Montenegrin women's national football team played to a draw at the start of the Nations League C.
Mirko Marić's team shared points with Azerbaijan in Baku (0:0) in a match in which they seemed closer to victory. They may have been harmed by a penalty at the very beginning when Armisa Kuč was fouled...
Misa had a good chance in the first half, Jasna Đoković was dangerous twice, but the result did not change.
"The playing conditions were inhumane - the cold, the pitch, the game being delayed by two hours... For that, congratulations to the girls. I think we were a better rival, that we showed more than Azerbaijan. This approach and dedication should be an example for every game. Now it's important to rest and prepare as best as possible for the next rival," said Marić.
Montenegro plays its next match in the Nations League on Tuesday - welcoming Lithuania to the stadium near Gorica.
