After the match, the head coach Samira Hurem said: “We are happy. We created several chances against the quality team. Our captain, Milena Nikolić, returned and dominated the field. I’m sorry she did not score. These are young players who need more time to be at the right level. If they were more experienced, we would probably use any opportunity. Such matches serve us for their development and we can say that we have accomplished the purpose.”
