In a tense match of the Water polo World league between the two National teams, Serbia manages to beat Spain with a last minute goal by Strahinja Rašović, to the assist of Andrija Prlainović.

The Serbian Dolphins have won an important match of the Round two on home grounds in Novi Sad, without a few of the standard team members. A mostly young group of players lead by coach Dejan Savić was facing a very strong rival, that was  defeated during the final 45 seconds of the game. An encounter definitely worth watching.

As the competition goes on, team Serbia is continuing well in their defense of the World league crown.

Rezultati srpskih sportista, u stanju su da obraduju i učine ponosnim gotovo svakog, ali odavno je poznato da fudbaleri Nacionalne A-selekcije u tu kategoriju ne spadaju. S druge strane, mlade nade našeg fudbala ovu tradiciju pobijaju, na radost napaćenih ljubitelja fudbala u Srbiji.

In a match that was full of political tensions, more than anything else, Serbia won their second leg match against Albania, at the Elbasan city stadium. The uneventful 90 minutes were suddenly brought to life after two quick goals during stoppage time. Serbia’s goal, during the first half of the duel (31′) was annulled, due to what was estimated as a strong contact between the Albanian keeper, and Serbia’s Zoran Tošić.

As the second half of this Euro 2016 qualifying match was lagging to a close, a beautiful pairing between Adem Ljajić and Aleksandar Kolarov, resulted in the first official goal of the night. Kolarov made sure the ball shook the net, from his left side, to the lower right hand corner. All of this, in the 91. minute.

As the home crowd was losing the energy to support their team, Ljajić is facing Berisha alone. His seamless lob shot, ended up right where it was supposed to. A total of two goals to null, as the stadium, mostly filled by the home fans was completely silenced.

The few Serbian fans that did make it to the Elbasan stadium were ecstatic, while the players ran up to them, to celebrate this moral and athletic win.

A victory in an occasion that was a lot more than just a game.
