Game Report
Montenegro national team played a friendly international game versus national league team of Malta. A match named "Medieval Shield" has been held at the auxiliary pitch of FC "Arsenal", with kick-off that started at 7:30p.m. local time. It was a hard game, in which Montenegro got a chance to play against players who play on the high level all over England, Malta and Australia. Players learnt a lot from the game, and will use it to improve and hone their skills, and fix mistakes that were made. Players from Montenegro fought bravely till the end, and till those 80 minutes ended they haven't stop trying. Huge improvement comparing to the first game played against Malta last year of 2022 was seen and our team will take everything they learnt for the future fixes.
