A little delay when taking off from Podgorica, a pleasant and pleasant, but time-long charter flight to Keflavik, a bus ride to Reykjavik, borrowing rooms, lunch, then a mandatory rest…
The blue and white expedition arrived in Iceland, where on Thursday evening they will play against Brejdablika first match of the 2nd round of qualification for the Conference League.
Tomorrow’s match is scheduled for 21:15 our time (19:15 local time), the match will be broadcast directly on RTCG 2, and left back Andrija Ražnatović is spreading optimism…
“We have a tough match – for sure. We are playing against teams whose championship is in full swing, that’s their advantage, but somewhere in there I see our chance,” says the excellent left back, then continues…
“We analyzed the rival, the coaching staff prepared and showed us all the details, and I think that we prepared in the best possible way. I hope for a good match and a positive result away from home,” said the 21-year-old lefty.
Brejdablik is in full competitive rhythm, he played 15 competitive matches (13 more than us), last season he eliminated Austria Vienna, he is the leader of the Icelandic championship… However, the representative defender does not want an alibi!
“The advantage of the rivals is that they played so many matches, but that way we also had more material to prepare in the best possible way. Brejdablik was unknown to us at the first moment, but now it’s definitely not, because we dedicated ourselves to him as much as possible. With on the other hand, we may still be somewhat unknown to them”.
The first-placed team from the country, which played in two major competitions that our Montenegro dreams of (European and World Championships), is decorated with collective play and great combativeness. The defense will be tested – collectively and individually.
“Like before every game, we all got our tasks and who we should pay attention to. However, this is practice, nothing unusual compared to some other matches,” said Ražnatović, aware that Brejdablik is good as a team.
And in Kopavogur, a song about the future will be heard – the most ardent fans of the “Barbarians” will be with their blue ones at the end of Europe…
“The support of the fans will mean a lot to us. If they could have been with us, their song would have been useful to us in Priština as well where there would be a fiercer collision, so it will mean even more to us in the calmer atmosphere that awaits us in Iceland. We will hear them louder and I believe that we have a real match ahead of us,” Andrija Ražnatović said.
After the rest, “Blues” will train tonight during the match at the stadium in Kopavogur.
