The coach of Vojvodina FC Bandović is expecting another difficult match against TSC FC, and the direct rival in the fight for the top of the scoreboard.

After the defeat against Maribor, Vojvodina is the host of the match against TSC at TSC Arena in Bačka Topola.

  • We are expecting a difficult match against a quality opponent who has been constant for years. They have a new coach, but not much has changed in their way of playing, so that is a team that wants to dominate when it comes to possession and attack the space, change sides, and they have quality players. What is left for us to do is to recover during these two days and give our all on Sunday and win, which would mean a lot to us after these previous matches where we didn’t achieve positive results, but we played very well. It is certainly not easy for us, because we play these matches as guests, but we have to overcome that and give our maximum to triumph. As for injuries, I have to inform you that Aleksa Vukanović has a problem with ligaments and will have to undergo surgery. Radulović has a problem with his shoulder, we are waiting for the exams, while Poletanović due to his problems with the leg will skip this match, but in the next two days we will see if he will be ready for Maribor or not- Bandović said.

He also reflected on the fact that Vojvodina received goals and fell in the finish in the matches that were played so far.

  • I spoke with the team and with individual players, and today I will have new talks. It is difficult to lose the game like that, we have to remain focused until the finish. We have to accept that in our championship we have to think all the time, and in Europe even more. There are so many situations in which you have to make faster decisions, due to pressing, change of positions, low block, middle block, and we have to solve those situations, and we cannot receive goals in the finish, we have to position better and play until the end. On the other hand, we didn’t score, we received a goal, and we need to score when we have the chance. In those European matches we won’t have so many chances as in the championship. That doesn’t mean that if we don’t score, that we should receive a goal. We are all responsible, but I talked to everyone and will continue to talk, because I have to support them, they are giving their all. If we look at these three matches, they all saw our game style, everything was on a high level and I am pleased with our game style. These matches prove that we can do it, but we have to continue working in the same rhythm, and from month to month we can only be better – Bandović highlighted.

 

He also pinpointed that on Sunday at TSC Arena they will play with the strongest lineup.

  • There is no resting, we have another training and the strongest team will perform on Sunday, those who are mentally and physically most prepared. There could be some tactical changes, but the best will play – Bandović said.

Voša believes that TSC is a quality team that needs some time to adjust to the new coach.

  • It is not easy to take over a team that has been trained by the same coach for three years. It takes time and patience. You all know what our situation was in January, and how it changed later. Not everything in football can be done in one or two days. You can see that game style, it is a good and organized team – Bandović concluded.

The match between Vojvodina and TSC is scheduled for Sunday at 8 pm at TSC Arena.
