The new Serbian national team of experts, made up of one of the biggest handball names, held the first press conference. At the same table were Nenad Perunicic, Nedeljko Jovanovic, Ljubomir Obradovic and Ljuba Pavlovic, while Dragan Skrbic was supported by them.
The three leading players who won medals at the World and European Championships, one of our biggest coaches and once the golden junior of the Old Continent, have made a strategic plan for the next period. Orlove first anticipates the start of qualifications for the EP 2020 against Belgium and Switzerland, and then in January and going to the World Cup in Germany.
Serbian national coach, Nenad Perunicic is full of optimism, with a dose of positive energy first talk about the choice of associates.
– I did not have much dilemma when it comes to what I believe. There are people who will be with me on the bench, those who will help me in the work. I like to say that these are my associates, not the assistants. I want to work, I am open to all kinds of suggestions, advice and everything that can help us.
In seven days, will you have a brave baptism, start qualifying for the EP 2020 against Belgium?
– Who follows handball, is aware that all opponents are difficult for us. I’ve chosen a team that does not have much experience, it carries a risk, but that’s my decision and I’m standing behind it. Belgium is a serious team lately, playing equally with everyone, even with France. They play a little hazartly, although they have no goalkeeper, the middle back is great, the game in Zagreb and everything goes from it, solving easy tasks. Our goalkeepers must be at the height of the task because they are the pillar of the team
In recent years, Switzerland has become an excellent team?
– They have a very good team, the main force is the experienced Schmitt, he is the driving force. They play differently from Belgium and I think we will have to combine the defense. Frankly, we do not care who is rival, Denmark, France or Switzerland, we have to fight and we will always be maximally motivated.
Peruničić finally added:
– I always ask for the maximum and I demand a fight. These are guys who were not in the foreground and now they will get a chance because they earned it. I will not mention how much time is short, because we never had it, but I will not even hack, because I never do it. We have a great motive, the representation is a huge scene and all players will be able to upgrade their careers.
