As if it were a game of chess Both coaches tried to surprise their opponent with its proposals, that is, if Montenegro initially preferred the presence of two power plants to improve the fluidity of circulation, then Spain threw in kilograms and centimeters in search of foreign launch. The first bets are the Balkan team won when the ball didn’t reach center Nemanja Grbovic, revealing the strong right arm of winger Branko Vujovic.

The truth is that together Nebojs Simic’s stopsHe started the duel in the same way that allowed him to lead the German Bundesliga’s best goalkeeper statistics, allowing Montenegro to take the lead by two goals (1-3) on the scoreboard.

But to get over it Spain with almost endless resources Good ball circulation is not enough, much less every two-thirds, as in Montenegro, when a player is missing due to constant sending-offs. A situation where Hispanics did not miss out not only to level the game (7-7), but also to completely reverse the game, as reflected by the three goal advantage (10-7) that Jordi Ribera had in the absence of his men. Twelve minutes to get to the break.

And the 5-1 defense, on which the Spanish team relied on each and every one of their numerical superiority, could no longer suffocate Montenegro, who was slowly starting to see him reduced to the whips of Branko Vujovic on offense. insufficient to contain a Spain supported by Gonzalo Pérez de Vargas’ defensive stopsand after reaching a four-goal lead (13-9) in the offensive wingers and center goals, they seemed willing to spoil the match.

But the nearly back-to-back exclusion of Jorge Maqueda and Miguel Sánchez-Migallón prevented Hispanics from opening a larger gap. 15-12 when the break comes.

However, as in the first half, Montenegro insisted. waste your options with exceptionsSome of them are clearly avoidable, like Vuk Lazovic’s lived through interrupting the Spanish team’s centre-kick.

A mistake that Hispanics brutally punished after confirming the 3-0 series against the Balkans, allowing the Spanish team to score a maximum of four goals (21-17) in the middle of the second half.

Again, Montenegro team did not surrender either With less than ten minutes to go, with two goals approaching, Jordi Ribera’s men appearing in a position to make the final minutes difficult. Who knew they wouldn’t suffer the slightest setback in this first stage if they don’t want to make their way to the quarter-finals difficult, something Spain didn’t want, much less so with young centre-back Ian Tarrafeta. The Finals always kept the advantage of the Spanish team, which was reflected in the final 30-25.
