Montenegrin football players achieved their second victory in the World Cup qualifiers in the 96th minute! Kuč scored for the victory over the Faroe Islands, which is extremely important for the further course of the qualifications.
This is the second victory of the Montenegrin football players, after they also defeated Gibraltar 3:1 at the start of the new qualifying cycle. The Faroe Islands are still without points after the second match.
We had a chance in the 4th minute through Jovetić, who received a long ball in the penalty area, tried to find Krstović with his heel, but the Faroese eliminated the danger at the last moment.
Our selection had a great opportunity in the 30th minute. Janković sent a cross into the penalty area, Vukčević was the fastest on the ball, however, he had to slide to shoot towards the opponent's goal, which affected the accuracy of the shot and this opportunity remained unused.
Right at the start of the second half, coach Prosinečki decided to make two substitutions. Instead of Lončar and Vukotić, Camaj and Kuč entered the game. Camaj's entry was immediately felt, because with quick dribbling he managed to create two chances. First a cross for Krstović, and then for Janković.
The first serious shot towards the guests' goal was taken by Radulović in the 73rd minute, but in the middle of the goal. Goalkeeper Lamhauge was excellently positioned.
Then the best chance for our team since the beginning of the match, with only three minutes left. A pass to Krstović, who went to defend Faran himself, set up a shot with his left foot, but when everyone expected a goal, Lamhauge saved once again.
The match went into injury time and when almost everyone raised their hands and saw a draw, a miracle happened in the direction of our attack.
The action was not smooth, but Robert Prosinečki's chosen ones managed to create a crowd in the guests' penalty area. After several deductions, the ball reached Edvin Kuč who did not think much, shot under the crossbar and placed it exactly where it needed to be, for an explosion at the stadium in Nikšić!
After this victory, the Falcons take second place in the group behind the Czech Republic, which defeated Gibraltar 3:0, and have the maximum 6 points, the same as our team, but a better goal difference.
The Montenegrin national team will play its next match against the Czech Republic, which we will be visiting on June 6th.
