MEGA ON WEDNESDAY AGAINST ZVEZDA START THE PLAYOFFS FINALS

The final series for the title of Serbian champion starts on Wednesday!

On Wednesday, June 9, at 8 pm, Mega Soccerbet will be a guest of the Crvena zvezda mts team within the first game of the finals of the Super League playoffs, and the game will be played in the Aleksandar Nikolcć hall. The players of coach Vladimir Jovanović achieved the first placement in the finals of the national championship in the history of the club with a 2-1 victory in the semifinal series against Partizan, so the matches against Crvena zvezda will be an opportunity for young Mega players to fight for the biggest trophy in club’s history.

Mega’s coach Vladimir Jovanovic stated that his team must respond to the strength and aggressiveness of Zvezda in defense:

– A very demanding match against Crvena zvezda, a team that played in the Euroleague and has a very big roster, is waiting for us. There are a minimum of two or more quality players in each position. It is certain that they will try to dictate the pace of the game, primarily with the intensity and contact in defense. In the finals of the ABA League, they showed that they raised the level of aggression and strength in defense to the highest possible level, and that this is where their strength lies. Without full concentration and response to that strength and their way of playing, it will be very difficult to play against Zvezda. We, again, have our qualities and we will try with more than the necessary dose of strength and concentration for all 40 minutes, to make the best possible match, and thus the series with Crvena zvezda,

said Vladimir Jovanovic, and then referred to the entire Mega season so far:

– I would like to repeat once again that I am very satisfied with the club and proud of the guys and the entire season they have had so far. They deserved to enter the finals with their work, dedication and commitment. It is normal that we will do our best to achieve the best possible result in the finals, but this should certainly be an incentive in their careers that everything can be achieved with the right work and the right approach,

said coach of Mega.

The final series will be played on best of three, the second game is scheduled for Friday, June 11 at 8 pm in the Mega Factory Hall without the presence of spectators, while the eventual third game will be played on Sunday, June 13 at 8:30 pm in the Aleksandar Nikolic Hall.

Mega’s Guard Dragan Milosavljevic pointed out that the finals will be a great test and a great experience for young Mega players:

– We are playing with the Euroleague team that won the ABA league and it is certain that they are in a good moment and that they are the favorites. The final will be a great test for our young players and a great experience when it comes to the fight for the trophy. We have a quality, we are very talented team that can play with everyone. The most important thing is to respond to the firmness and aggression of the Zvezda’s players if we want to reach a positive outcome,

said Milosavljevic.

The match Crvena zvezda mts – Mega Soccerbet will be played on Wednesday, June 9, at 20:00 in the Aleksandar Nikolic Hall, with a live broadcast on TV Arena Sport.
