Montenegrin water polo players defeated Germany in "Morača" and will play for fifth place in the World Cup, and coach Dejan Savić was partially satisfied.

The "Sharks" were defeated by Croatia 12:11 in a dramatic game last night, and now they celebrated 19:15 against the underdogs.

"Every defeat is a state of shock, we only had one night to recover, primarily in the psychological part. The match with the Croatians had a mild impact on the team, and against Germany we can be satisfied with the performance in the first two quarters," said Savić.

Everything was different from then on.

"In the second two quarters, there was total confusion in defense. We conceded a lot of goals, and I want to show that good defense can be played under these new rules. This tournament is important for us to create a team," Savić emphasized.

Montenegro plays against the Netherlands on Sunday at 16.10:XNUMX PM.

"We're going to the World Cup and we can be calm for that last duel. We'll try some tactical variants that we've been leaving out," Savić concluded.
