Vojvodina player Mirko Topić celebrated his jubilee in the most beautiful way possible – the hundredth game in the Old Lady jersey was also marked by a great victory over Čukarički with a score of 3-2.
Before the start of the match of the 26th round of the Mozzart Bet Super League of Serbia, Mirko Topić was presented with a framed Vojvodina jersey with his surname and the number 100 on the back, in honor of the jubilee and his hundredth game in the first team of the Old Lady.
Topić pointed out that he is extremely proud to have become a member of the 100 club.
– Considering the fact that I am from head to toe from Vojvodina, this jubilee really means a lot to me and I am very glad that I joined the 100 club. As for some goals and dreams, all I can say is that I realized my dreams that the moment I stepped on Karađorđe in front of our audience. I have a goal to go out with my Voša on the European stage and that’s the only thing I’m thinking about – said Topić.
Topić played a notable role in the middle of the field in a great victory over Čukaricki, interestingly, the first against teams from the upper part of the table. Voša’s midfielder believes that this triumph can be decisive in the continuation of the fight for Europe.
– I am sure that this victory brought us a lot on the psychological level. We got rid of that certain pressure that existed precisely because of the fact that in the first part of the season we did not win any derbies against teams from the upper house. I believe that this is just the beginning and that we can beat all the rivals from the upper part of the table – assures Topić.
The fight for places leading to Europe seems never more uncertain and open. Vojvodina is currently in fifth place with 46 points, but Partizan and Čukarički have only five and four points more.
– Regarding the position in the table, everyone knows that our appetites are satisfied by the third place in the championship, and considering that the second one is not that far, we secretly hope that we can finish in that position as well. It is important to go from match to match, to play each one as best as we can, and the points will come – says Topić.
The victory over Čukarički will not be so significant, if Voša does not beat Javor in Ivanjica in the next round, before the international break, and before the derby with Partizan on April 1 at Karađorđe.
– We expect all three points on Saturday, and we are only thinking in that direction. We are all aware of the situation and we know that we only confirm yesterday’s triumph with a victory – concluded Mirko Topić.
