The second round of the regional Premier League, another match outside its pool, but this time in the role of host...
Due to the well-known events surrounding the name of the swimming pool in Kotor, the water polo players from Primorje will play their first match with Croatian clubs in Budva - against Primorje, tomorrow (Friday) from 18:XNUMX.
"We are playing on a neutral field, but I invite all the fans to support the team," said the coach of Kotorana, Vjekoslav Pasković.
Primorac did not open the season well returning to the elite rank of the regional competition, as it was defeated in the first round by the champion Novi Belgrade. On the other hand, Primorje showed just how awkward it can be at the premiere.
"This is a young and talented team that reached the finals of the Eurocup last year, and at the start of this season they beat the mighty Radnički," said Franćesko Masaro, the new goalkeeper of the giants from Kotor.
How good Radnički is is perhaps best expressed by the fact that he reached the Champions League through Mladost from Zagreb.
"We are playing against an inconvenient rival who surprised one of the league's favorites in the first round, and that calls for caution and a serious approach from the very start of the game," emphasized Pasković.
However...
"The expectation is that we play a good game and register our first victory," the coach of Primorje is clear.
The Italian goalkeeper confirmed that the boys from the "ancient city" are only interested in triumph.
"Even though Primorje is an opponent that we have to respect, we are ready and determined to win. It will be a great game, and I hope to see a pool full of Primorje fans, because I am convinced that with their support and energy, we will be able to win," believes Masaro.
Jadran m:tel, the second Montenegrin club in the Premier League, after the triumph at the start against Mladost na Škver, is expecting a guest this time - on Saturday from 19:XNUMX against Šabac.
