Partizan is aware of Metalurg power

Partizan - Lovcen

After draw against Nexe, for Metalurg chance to "correct things" in SEHA GSS league is duel versus Partizan (Wednesday 17,45 MTV live) current Serbian vice- champion in round 6.

Team from Belgrade this season is one of the outsiders, not only because of four defeats so far, but for young and inexperienced team that has had this season. Serbian team has only one victory in SEHA, those against Lovcen in Belgrade, 26-23. On previous tour in Skopje, in the second round against Vardar, "black and white" lost 26-33.

Partizan is aware of the power of Metalurg. Macedonian champion has unconvincing game against Nexe, and now want to correct mistakes made.

- Against Nexe you saw two different face of Metalurg. I would not say we played disparaging, but was certainly unprofessional. It will certainly help us to understand that there is no easy match, not just in SEHA GSS league. Cannot win game if not play on maximum level. I think we all realized that every day should prove more and more, says Lino Chervar

Croatian coach confirm Metalurg once again will use some youngsters in the team

- Nikola Markovski has back problems and muscle injury for Zlatko Mojsovski. Maybe someone else will not be in squad. We will give more time to some to spend on court. It is uncertain whether Naumce Mojsovski will play, which will be decided after last final training. Encouraging is that Jonoski is returns. He is important for our defense for the next match in Barcelona. Now Nikola Kostovski will be in place as replacement for Zlatko Mojsovski. Maybe we will put also Filip Taleski. Zarko Peshevski will certainly play on line player position. Vanco Dimovski will not be on the team, as he has problems with shoulder, said Lino Cervar.

Partizan this season has quite younger team, and the last change in squad was the departure of goalkeeper Srdjan Djordjevic who played just a few games and sign for club in Switzerland. New team member is Radivoje Ristanovic.

"The game against Metalurg will use for getting more experiences, because we are aware that they are a big favorite, and from our rival we can learn a lot. I believe we will improve the impressions from the previous games, especially after losing against Borac at home", said coach Aleksander Brkovic. 

Young Partizan players are willing to show the best of themselves.

"I think we need to take out a many conclusions from the match with Borac. In the match against Metalurg we enter into with great desire to prove ourselves and we are hoping to have a quality game that will contribute to gaining the necessary experience", said Igor Mrshulja.
