If game versus Lovcen was last "training match" for Vardar before EHF Champions League than Macedonian champion is in good form. Currently runner up in SEHA GSS league, Vardar demolished Lovcen 36-19 (21-9) in round 7, continuing winning streak of three games in row. At least one week Vardar will be leader on table with 16 points, one more that Tatran Presov and four points in front of Zagreb CO (two games less).

 

- I congratulate my players for their performances. I am pleased with our approach; we played as we are speaking before the game in looker room. Usually we played mostly 5-1 and 6-0 defense. If I am not satisfied, it's game between 42. to 50 minutes when made many mistakes and rushed shots and not returning fast in defense. It can change and so will play in Switzerland, said Andon Boskovski, coach of Vardar

 

Guests from Cetinje manage to equalize results just once (1-1), and after first several minutes Vardar continues their dominations. For this match coach Andon Boskovski decides to rest Timur Dibirov, Matjaz Brumen, Petre Angelov and Vladimir Petric, and for first time to gave bigger chance to left back Stefan Terzic.

He finally got a chance to play more and need 13 minutes to adjust. After five missed shots score first goal for Vardar this season in 39 minutes, and one again in closing minutes in game.

 

- He was not with the team during the preparation period, but played with cadet national team of Serbia on EURO. After arriving in Skopje, he reported injure and had long period of rehabilitation. We have a long bench, and big demanding from players. He get chance and may not use, but in the future will be in team on some games, though it was not in the first squad, said Andon Boskovski.

 

Only uncertain things on game were goal deference in favor of Vardar. Home team need just 15 minutes for "plus ten" (13-3) and since then winner was already known. Vardar continues to push harder during the second half, and Lovcen players could not follow that game.

 

Kasim Kamenica, guest coach was not pleased with the play of his team. Try to change something asking for time out after 10 minutes, but was not enough to counteract the host team.

 

- Vardar had the right professional approach in game, all players contributed to such a high win. We were unable nowhere near. We were impressed by the team and the atmosphere.

I am disappointed with my team displayed regardless of the bad situation in the club. Individual qualities of some of their players are on low level, said Kasim Kamenica, coach od Lovcen.

 

In next round Vardar travel to Zagreb, and Lovcen will face Nexe in Osijek.
