The players showed combativeness during the entire match and deservedly got a big point, said Bojana Popović after the draw of Budućnost Bemax against Brest (20:20) in the 7th round of the Champions League.

"Brest showed great fighting spirit, we knew it would be difficult, because this was an important game for them as well. I am proud of how the girls played all 60 minutes, they fought and it was evident. The most important thing is that we show fighting spirit throughout the match, that the girls support each other, and we are happy that we scored in the last moments. The point for the side is big for us, now we are focused on the next match and we want to make an additional progress in our game", said the head of the coaching staff.

French national team player Kalidijatu Nijakate scored three goals against her club, whose jersey she wore for three years.

"I'm glad that I played again in this great atmosphere, it was wonderful. This is an important point for us in the fight for a place in the round of 60. I'm glad that we showed fighting spirit during all XNUMX minutes, we knew it would be difficult and that's the most important thing. It will be an interesting match next Saturday in Podgorica," Nijakate pointed out.
