The first two games of the final playoff series for water polo players did not give an answer as to who is closer to the title of champion of Montenegro.
In the first meeting, Jadran was convincing, winning with a score of 9:4, then Primorac retaliated in a similar way - in Kotor it was 6:4, although it also had an advantage of 6:1...
Is there a favorite before the third duel that is scheduled tonight from 19:XNUMX in Herceg Novi?
"There is not much to talk about, in the second game we were simply outplayed. Primorac imposed a rhythm that did not suit us - swimming was slower, attacks were slower. This is all that does not please a fast team that plays on the counterattack. We were weaker in position attack, and we didn't score a goal for two and a half quarters. I don't know if that has happened in the history of the Adriatic", says Danilo Radović.
Now the psychological moment also plays an important role - the third game, played for three wins, could direct the final series.
"Perhaps now Primorac is more relieved. But, we are playing at home, we will have support from the stands as the strongest motivation to win. This game is the most important, because whoever wins will be one step away from the trophy," says Radović.
Aljoša Mačić was the most effective player of Primorje on Saturday, he shook the Novlja net three times.
"We played excellently, I hope it will be the same in Herceg Novi. Since the beginning of the season we have been preparing for the final and we knew that every game would be exciting. I believe that we can repeat the game in defense that we showed in Kotor, and I am confident in attack that we can do even better," Mačić points out.
In 10 matches this season, Jadran won six, Primorac celebrated four times.
"There are no secrets between these two teams. I am optimistic before the third game, we will not back down. We want a triumph that would bring us one step away from the title," Mačić concluded.
