Coming up: football and water polo today

Today at 15:00 starts Partizan’s football team against Mladost. The team is still somewhat under the impact of the loss in Greece. Marko Nikolić is trying to shake up the players.
- This time we have realistic chances to get to the first position of the league table - he said. We have a great series for 20 matches, I think, this defeat came in the right time to be able to continue all competitions with the appropriate attitude.
The trainer admitted, he couldn’t give any information about when Drinčić, Ostojić and Brašanac would be able to join the battle. As for today’s match, even Andrija Živković and Volkov might possibly have to rest instead of playing.
Match will be broadcasted live by ArenaSport 1.

The water polo team starts at 17:15 in regional Triglav Liga. They play against Radnički Kragujevac in the 1st round.
- Our team was the youngest in last season’s Champions League, with the average age of 20,3 years - said Mirko Brdajić, sports director of VK Partizan. - Yet it does not mean we are not equal to others and we wouldn’t aim the highest. Our players are young but experienced, with numerous games behind them. A lot of them come from the youth team, they all developed during the summer.
- Right now Slobodan Soro is in Brazil, he has obligations there - head coach Vladimir Vujasinović added. - He joins us either in November or in February. We have three young goalkeepers, but we still need Soro’s experience and routine very much.
- In our team there are 8 players who are in the youth national team - Vujasinović continued. - Among them Rističević and Mandić are in the senior national team as well, the latter one won gold medal at all three senior international competitions this summer. We do have talents, we must now make the best possible conditions for them.
Water polo match starts right after football, ArenaSport 1 broadcasts it live as well.

Update: there are some controversies around when the water polo team starts. Some resources say 17:15, others say 20:00. Well, let's keep our eyes open.
