The Nikšić team failed to qualify for the finals of the final tournament of the European Champions League in goalball. She was defeated today in the Belgian Blakenberg, in the semi-final with the current European champion, the Lithuanian Šaltinis - 9:5.
A series of 6:0 and almost ten minutes without a given goal cost the team from Nikšić the victory against the official and two-time consecutive champions of Europe.
The Montenegrin representative, after a slightly weaker start in attack and a 3:1 lead by Šaltinis, made a 4:0 run for a 5:3 lead at the beginning of the second half.
In those moments, Nikola Čurović's team had both the game and the result, but two quick goals brought back the Lithuanians, who showed to the end why they are at the top of European and world football.
The most effective player in the Nikšić team was Nikola Nikolić with four goals, while Miloš Rantović scored once.
Nikšić's rival in the match for third place, today at 16:15 p.m., will be defeated in the duel between Čemnicer and Hansa from Roštok. The winner of the third place will join the finalists at the club world championship next year in Finland.
Nikšić finished the competition in the group as second place with two triumphs (against Brussels 14:4 and Chemnitzer 12:7) and a defeat (against Hansa 5:2), and in the quarterfinals he eliminated Fukse from Berlin 14:8
