The coach of Serbian juniors, Nikola Markovic, summed up the first part of the preparations for qualifying for the World Cup in Algeria, which „eaglets“ expects in Gornji Milanovac from the sixth to the eighth of January.
– We have a lot of problems. Qualifications are with us, so far we have always been positive as far as that. Only the winner goes to the World Cup, which for this generation in 1996 was the last big competition. We have experience with the previous two competitions, and it would be a great thing for the guys, and Serbian handball to qualify to Algeria. The group is not easy. There are Greece and Lithuania, but above all, Island, who was third in the world is now seventh in the European Championship. Icelanders are the favorites and better than us. We have to admit that, but we have home advantage and a great desire to defeat them. We play to our Christmas. Some teams did not want to accept the delay. This is the reason to give more than what we are worth and may sell to SP – Markovic said, adding:
– Several players from the list of 28 players were injured. Maleri follow one another, or to the second of January we will know the true picture. We had the idea to intensify competition with cadets, Milan Jovanovic Vuk Milenković, Sunajko, superior wing of Pick Szeged. If Pastor cylinder, then it must for us. It looked pretty good on the ground, but the problems with injuries and denunciations they’re stuck. What is here is looking to get the most – said Nikola Markovic
