First win in the qualifiers - unexpectedly tough, against an underdog, but the points are being scored...

Montenegro defeated Gibraltar 3:1 in Nikšić last night after a comeback, and will host the Faroe Islands on Tuesday, also at the stadium near Bistrica.

- The most important thing is that we won, we can analyze what and how, but for myself I can say that I have not been myself in the past few days, because of everything that happened. For me, Deli's departure was a shock, we were very close. In those moments, a person becomes emotionally drained, and this is reflected in their physical condition. Now all we have to do is prepare for the Faroe Islands in a short period of time, who are a step or two better team than Gibraltar - said Marko Janković, assistant for Marko Tući's goal for 2:1, the goal that decided the match.

The Farani sold their skin dearly against the Czech Republic away last night, only falling in the final - 2:1.

- We've heard comments that Gibraltar and the Faroe Islands are teams of the same rank, but they're not. They're a serious team, both physically and tactically. I happen to know some of their players, I know how good they are. They're a very good team. Especially when you add the weather conditions that will be there on Tuesday - rain, difficult terrain. We beat Turkey in such conditions, which are so many times better than us on paper. It's hard to predict what can happen. Fighting, that's what's left for us - emphasized the Qarabag midfielder.
