Problems for the "blues" before the start of the Champions League, they spent the day at the airport, lost three suitcases

Buducnosti handball players faced problems ahead of the first match in the new season of the EHF Champions League, which they play today against Rapid in Bucharest.

Due to the delay of the flight from Podgorica to Istanbul, the "blues" missed the flight to Bucharest, which is why they had to spend the whole day at the airport in Turkey.

They arrived in Bucharest at 21:30 local time, i.e. an hour earlier in Montenegrin time, and it was planned to be in the capital of Romania seven hours earlier.

This caused them to miss training the day before the match, but the problems did not end there either, because the suitcases of Ivana Godeč, Andrijana Popović and Nikolina Marković were lost.

Despite this, optimism prevails in the camp of our team.

"We faced numerous problems on the way. We spent the whole day at the airport in Istanbul, so we didn't even make it to the scheduled training session in Bucharest. We arrived at the hotel around 22,30:XNUMX p.m. local time, so there was little time to rest from the hard journey and prepare for the match in the right way. However, we have trained hard in the past period and we are ready for the start of the Champions League," said captain Ivona Pavićević.

The match in Bucharest will start at 16:XNUMX.

"We are looking forward to the duel against Rapid and we want to present ourselves in the best light, despite all the problems we have had. I believe in my team and that we will provide a good edition on a very unpleasant field in Bucharest," Pavićević is optimistic.
