MONTENEGRO AND CANADA WORKING TOGETHER IN IGALO

Real challenges are ahead of us

17.02.2008.After yesterday's exhausting trip from Germany, our players have day off today. Tomorrow, they will start the second phase of the preparations for Olympic games and European championship. They will
train together with Canadian national team in Igalo. On 22nd they will be in Athens, participating on the prestigious tournament together with Greece, Serbia and USA. After that, on 27th "reds" will be in Beijing, training with Chinese national team.

-First phase is behind us. We had one official friendly match against Germany, which ended 12:12 - the game was much more important for Germans because they have qualifying tournament for Olympics soon, in
Romania. Germans were great hosts and I must say that we were all surprised with the spectacle they made before the match and the fact that there were so many spectators, even half an hour before the match
- said Drasko Brguljan.

He added that the atmosphere among the players is great:

-That is very important. Older players are doing everything they can to help younger ones to fit in well. We have a lot of work ahead of us, a lot of challenges and the fact that we are having good time in
training helps very much. We have Olympics and European championship - two competitions that require full commitment and a lot of energy - both physical and mental.
