Vojvodina’s midfielder Aranđel Stojković will soon celebrate a beautiful jubilee in the Old Lady’s team.
Since he arrived to Karađorđe in July 2018 from Spartak, Stojković has so far registered 92 appearances in the Vojvodina jersey and there is no doubt that he will soon become a Centurion.
– Until recently, I didn’t even know that I was close to the jubilee hundredth performance. It is not a small thing to play a hundred matches, especially not for a club that has such a tradition and greatness as Vojvodina. I miss a few more games to reach the jubilee and it would be nice to celebrate it with new victories of Vojvodina – said Aranđel Stojković.
After a two-week break, Vojvodina will have a match against Novi Pazar.
– We enjoyed the break, and honestly, it came at the right time. We had a really tight schedule, we played a lot of games which left consequences. Several players suffered minor injuries, I was among them, but now we are fresher and more rested. The match with Novi Pazar will not be easy, just like every next one, because we are entering a key part of the season – Stojković emphasized and continued:
– It may seem on paper that we have an easier schedule, but in the finish of the championship, all rivals are far more difficult. Those weaker teams from the lower part of the table catch the last train for survival and they are certainly more dangerous now than at the beginning or middle of the season. Now there is a fierce fight for every point, for every goal, corner kick, or any situation that can pull them out and bring survival. That is why the situation on the table can now deceive us and we must not allow that to happen – Aranđel Stojković pointed out.
He believes that it will not be easy for Vojvodina to repeat the success from last season, that is, to remain third and win the Serbian Cup.
– At the very least, I would like to repeat the success from last season, but it is harder to repeat it than doing it for the first time. The team has not changed much, and somehow it is always believed that at least some change is needed to avoid saturation. Fortunately, this is not the case with us, on the contrary, there is a great atmosphere in the team, we have been together for a long time, we know each other and respect each other on and off the pitch. We are in tune and we use all those advantages that we have been together for a long time in the best possible way. That is why we believe that we can defend the Serbian Cup and keep the third place on the table – concluded Aranđel Stojković.
The match Vojvodina – Novi Pazar is on the schedule on Friday at 5 p.m.
