In the fifth round of Linglong Superliga of Serbia, on Sunday Vojvodina will play against TSC from Bačka Topola. With the rookie in our most elite football rang, Vojvodina has only played friendly matches in history so far, so this will be the first official match between the two teams. The fact that a real football spectacle and a game for enjoyment can be expected on Karađorđe on Sunday night is best evidenced by the fact that will meet the only two teams which have scored a maximum of 12 points in the first four rounds and are currently in the first and second place at the table.
As for Vojvodina’s Manager Nenad Lalatović is concerned, he has no dilemma regarding the goal of the red and whites in their fifth league’s challenge this season.
– I always expect a win, which is perfectly normal. Regardless of whether Red Star, Partizan or TSC are coming to Karađorđe, we will always go for the win, because we are Vojvodina, one of the three biggest clubs in Serbia. I think the management of the club, the players, the coaching staff and all others in the club deserved for Karađorđe to be full on Sunday, because we achieved four consecutive victories and made a goal difference of 14-1, ahead of the Vojvodina derby which we expect. That is why I would ask the fans to come to the match, because in order to go to Europe, we need their support. They were phenomenal against Rad and I hope they will be even better against TSC – says Lalatović.
He is extremely respectful of the next red and whites’ rival.
– I’m pleasantly surprised by their quality. It is a team that has been playing together for a long time and first came from third to second and then from second to first division. Clubs playing their first Superliga season are in expansion and should not be threatened. After all, they showed their quality by achieving four consecutive wins, just like us. They have an experienced team, with two experienced central backs, Tumbasević in front of them, and there is also Silađi, as well as former coach of Vojvodina Sabo. All former players from Vojvodina who now play for their team will have a great motive to show that they deserve a place in our club, and frankly, I also think that they deserve to be here – emphasizes Lalatović.
However, as always, he is optimistic about the final outcome of the match.
– It is important to me that we will go onto the pitch in our best possible lineup and that the atmosphere among the players is phenomenal. Great credit for this goes to president Gajić and the rest of the board, because all the players have to get, they get it literally in a minute, and they are owed nothing. When there are regular salaries and premiums and we are at such a high level, then the players are absolutely satisfied and they train with a smile on their face. I hope we will have that smile on our face on Sunday evening when the game is over – said Lalatović.
