The Serbian women’s water polo team repeated their placement from the last European Championship in the Netherlands. After losing to Great Britain 10:9 (1:1, 3:3, 3:2, 3:3), they took tenth place. <\/p>\n\n
The game was tough for a long time, tied without many goals. Serbia took the lead through Ili\u0107, Britain turned it around to 2:1. Two minutes before the end of the second quarter, brutality in favor of Serbia, which Radonji\u0107 took advantage of to equalize from the five-pointer to 2:2. <\/p>\n\n
By the time the teams were complete, Serbia had not gained an advantage, it was 4:4. In the middle of the third period, the Serbian team was left without Luki\u0107 and Mili\u0107evi\u0107 due to three fouls. It was a big handicap that the British took advantage of. They led 7:5, but captain Jelena Vukovi\u0107 reduced it, so Serbia entered the last quarter with a minus one. Elena \u0106uk equalized with a player more than five minutes before the end. Dickens scored from the third five-pointer for Britain to lead 8:7, only for the third personal goal of Hristina Ili\u0107 Cutlerova to bring two goals to the surplus. Elena \u0106uk immediately responded. <\/p>\n\n
Coach Milo\u0161 Bradi\u0107 called a timeout two minutes before the end. Diaz Mesa converted the opportunity to make it 9:9. In the last minute, the British women had a minute of rest after the third exclusion of Ma\u0161a \u0106uk. They missed the first opportunity, but Cutler brought victory to her team after a throw-out by Elena \u0106uk. Jovana Radonji\u0107 tried in the last attack without success. <\/p>\n\n
The referees also left a bitter taste. Serbia had players sent off 17 times, and the British team earned three five-pointers. Bradi\u0107’s team finished the match without four players. On the other hand, Serbia had six more players and two five-pointers, but also had a period of four minutes more players due to brutality. Interestingly, during that period, our team had a player sent off four times. The referees were, in a word, bad. <\/p>\n\n
