Partizan celebrates their second victory
in SEHA GSS league. Serbian team has managed to win three points with the
winning goal of Aleksandar Radovanovic - "Zeitz" in the last second of the
exciting finish against Metalurg 23:22 (10:15). After series of the
tight matches in which Partizan stayed without points, Aleksandar Brkovic’s
players have finally taken three points.
After first 30 minutes nobody could
expect Metalurg to leave Belgrade with empty bags. Stanic was great on goal,
Mirkulovski was scoring easily over Serbian team’s defense. Half-time score was
10:15.
Second half - totally different story.
Metalurg was having troubles finding a way to score over Partizan’s great
defense led by Mijajlo Marsenic and were not on the other side able to stop
Serbian player Markicevic and Vukovic from scoring easy goals. Partizan needed
a little more than 23 minutes in the second half to catch Metalurg with a new
equalizer (after 1:1) scored by Aleksandar Radovanovic. After that match was
held in egal as neither was able to sail on bigger advantage. In the end, only
30 seconds before the final whistle Mandic missed a shot to go on +1,
Partizan’s coach Brkovic called timeout, and Radovanovic scored buzzer-beater
to win the enthralling finish. Final score was 23:22.
Rade Mijatovic, Metalurg’s
goalkeeper:
- I want to congratulate to Partizan.
They’ve deserved to win today.
Milos Kostadinovic, Partizan’s
right wing:
- We are aware of the fact that this win
doesn’t mean much for us at the moment in SEHA GSS league but it surely is a
self-confidence booster which is exactly what we need before the domestic
Play-Offs
Lino Cervar,
Metalurg’s coach:
- Deserved victory for the home team.
They’ve simply wished this more than we did and I believe this is great for
them as a team . We are a little bit tired with some injured players but that
doesn’t mean anything, Partizan was today a better team. We’ve played 5 matches in
last 12 days, stayed out of energy and with Mirkulovski injured it was mission
impossible for us today.
Aleksandar Brkovic,
Partizan’s coach:
- I
want to congratulate my players who’ve managed to get back from -6 and win the
match against team like Metalurg. We didn't give up. Our defense was decisive.
We are awarded for all these matches in which we were defeated in the last
moments. This is really stimulus for us. We will put all our effort to ensure
playing SEHA GSS league next season too, through our domestic Play- Offs.
Rukometaši Partizana došli su do svoje druge pobede u SEHA GAZPROM SS ligi. U neizvesnoj završnici duela na "Banjici", crno-beli su golom Aleksandra Radovanovića u poslednjim sekundama duela došli do bodova protiv Metalurga 23:22 (10:15). Posle serije mečeva u kojima srpski tim nije imao sreće u završnicama, konačno su izabranici Aleksandra Brkovića jedan duel prelomili u svoju korist.
Posle prvih 30 minuta, činilo se da će Metalurg lako odneti bodove iz Beograda. Sigurna igra, raspoloženi Darko Stanić na golu, raspucani Filip Mirkulovski u napadu (8:14), ništa nije slutio da će doći do velikog preokreta u nastavku (poluvreme 10:15).
Motivisana ekipa Partizana, željna pobede posle eliminacije iz Kupa Srbije i serije poraza u regionalnom takmičenju, pružila je mnogo bolju igru u drugom poluvremenu, pre svega, u fazi odbrane.
Makedonski vicešampion ušao je u problem sa napadom. Mirkulovski se povredio, Cindrić je bio na poštedi, tako da su odgovornost preuzeli Mandić, Pecakovski, Kedžo, u jednom trenutku i Velko Markovski, ali to nije bilo dovoljno.
U odbrani je dominirao Mijailo Marsenić, a u napadu Partizana, kvalitet više su doneli Božidar Markićević i Vladimir Vuković., uz junaka utakmice Aleksandra Radovanovića.
Upravo je Radovanović u 53. minutu doneo izjednačenje (20:20) iz kontre, prvo posle početnih 1:1. Za njim je usledio novi kontranapad i gol Vanje Ilića za prvo vođstvo Partizana - 21:20 u 54. minutu.
Zategao je Metalurg odbranu sa Radetom Mijatovićem na golu. Usledili su golovi Georgievskog i Ojlevskog za 22:21 Makedonaca na minut i po pre kraja.
Tada na scenu stupa Radovanović. Postiže gol za izjednačenje. Mandić ne uspeva da savlada Radovanovića u narednom napadu, a crno-beli, posle tajm-auta koji je zatražio Aleksandar Brković na 20 sekundi pre kraja, novim golom Radovanovića dolaze do velike radosti - 23:22.
Rade Mijatović, golman Metalurga:
- Hvala Partizanu na gostoprimstvu. Zasluženo je pobedio.
Miloš Kostadinović, desno krilo Partizana:
- Čestitam Metalurgu na fer i korektnoj igri. Možda nam bodovno ova pobeda ne znači ništa, ali mnogo će da nam pomogne na podizanju samopuzdanja pred nastavak našeg prvenstva i u pohodu ka tituli.
Lino Červar, trener Metalurga:
- Zaslužena pobeda crno-belih, više su želeli pobedu. Mislim da je to za njih podstrek. Mi smo malo umorni. U 12 dana imali smo pet utakmica. Desetkovani smo, ali ne umanjujem pobedu crno-belih. Ponestalo nam je snage, Mirkulovski se povredio... Trebalo je više da se potrudimo, ali nismo. Trebalo je da se pokažu igrči koji manje igraju. Očigledno igrači iz drugog plana nisu uspeli. Darko Stanić je malo povređen, zato nije branio u drugom poluvremenu. Mi smo hteli LŠ i prvenstvo, to nam je prioritet -
Aleksandar Brković, trener Partizana:
- Čestitam igračima što su se bratili iz velikog minusa uspeli da se vrate protiv ovakve ekipe. Uspeli smo da prekorenemo, nismo se predavali. Ono što nismo imali u prvom poluvremenu, uspeli smo u drugom. Odbranom smo pobedili. Vratilo nam se za one mečeve u kojima smo u poslednjim trenucima primali. Ovo nam je podstratek. S obzirom na to da nemamo mogućnost da igramo Kup, sve snage su usmerene ka tituli, da sledeće sezone igramo u SEHA ligi, ali i u kvalifikacijama za Ligu šampiona, ako Bog da.
