After their away win (36:32), the Montenegrin handball players also celebrated in the second leg of the World Championship play-off semi-final against Finland (30:26) and made a great overture before the doubleheader with Slovenia.

Experienced Milos Vujovic, together with Radojica Čepić i Stefan Čavor He formed the most efficient trio in the Montenegrin national team.

Two wins over Finland can help us continue at a strong pace because we face a much stronger rival, Slovenia. The play-off final will require the maximum, because if we are not at our maximum, we cannot hope to win against the Slovenians.", said Miloš Vujović.

The victory over the handball players from the Land of a Thousand Lakes is extremely important in terms of self-confidence, as our Lions entered the previous two-match match after a disappointing performance at the European Championship.

We have to agree that after a very bad European Championship, confidence does not return after one or two games, but it is good that we have started a new cycle with victories. These are positive developments. I hope that confidence against Slovenia will be at a higher level than before these two matches. We have to prepare much better. There were good and bad moments, and against Slovenia we have to eliminate those bad moments. We must not allow oscillations. We are going full throttle towards the World Cup", added Miloš Vujović.

Lions goalkeeper, Nikola Matovic, finally returned to the field after a long break due to injury, got a chance in the second half and made three saves.

"It's important that we triumphed in front of our audience because the feeling wouldn't be complete if we didn't win. I'm glad we made them happy and I'm glad that my return was in front of a full house.", said the 27-year-old goalie who tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left leg in early April last year.

He pointed out that they looked much better in defense tonight, but that they will improve further before the doubleheader with Slovenia.

"The defense was much better tonight than in Finland, but there is always room for improvement. We can pack it in even better for Slovenia and fight them to the last atom of strength.", concluded Matović.
