Our team had the lead on two occasions, but a lack of strength in the finish meant that the points were shared tonight in Boras.
The match started with a slightly more offensive approach from the team. Goran Perišić, and after the initial initiative, the Swedes managed to take over the middle of the field. However, that did not add much significance because our team seemed very concentrated, not allowing the opponent to play.
Montenegro patiently waited for a chance, and the real one arrived in the 20th minute. He sent the ball flying forward. Vasilije Adzic, and when trying to intervene, the entire football missed Bleon Kurtulus, which he took advantage of Vladimir Perisic who headed straight for the goal, took a shot, and with a bit of luck the ball reached the Balša Mrvaljević who headed it into the net.
Despite the lead and the good condition of the field, Sweden managed to impose their rhythm again, and in the 34th minute they managed to equalize. He sent the ball from the right wing. Markus Karlson to his namesake Rafferty who gave himself a nice advantage from the first move and then checked Benjamin Kriještarac.
This team showed on several occasions that it had character, so the scoreboard showed a tie a little more than a minute later. Immediately, the Sokolićs went on the offensive, sending a precise ball from the right wing Nikola Vukovic, and Perišić calmed it down and then passed it to Adžić, who turned nicely around his keeper and brought Montenegro back into the lead.
The score did not change in the first half, and the second half brought a much more concrete game for the hosts.
The Swedes managed to pose a serious threat on several occasions, but our defense successfully repelled those shots, and Kriještarac also put on a quality performance for the defense, not allowing the ball to end up behind him.
As the game drew to a close, the home team seemed to be getting better and better, and our guys seemed to have run out of fuel to finish the match. Five minutes before the end of the regular time, the Swedes scored the equalizer. Karlslon sent the ball into the danger zone, and that's where he did his best. Peter Amoran which turned out to be a final 2:2.
Montenegro is thus in third place after eight games, which they share with their current rival. Both teams have 10 points each.
