Hundreds of Budućnost fans heading for Veszprém

Budućnost will not be without support in Veszprém against Győri Audi ETO KC, in the first leg of EHF Women's Champions League Final, as it is expected that several hundred Montenegrian supporters will be in the Veszprém Arena supporting the away side.

Around 150 of the lost ardent people from Budućnost fan group "The Barbarians" will be present, just as they have in Metz and Ljubljana for the game against Krim.

"We will probably take three buses to Veszprém,” said Lazar Vukčević, one of representative of the "Barbarians".

“ We’re leaving on Friday at noon. We supported Budućnost in some of the matches through the competition, so we can’t miss out on the final. We know it will be hard for us in the Veszprém Arena because, as we heard, the local fans use horns and other instruments, but we will not spare our heads and throats to support Budućnost in Hungary. We hope for the best results of the team.”

The Barbarians were present at the game with Győri Audi ETO KC in May 2006. in the second leg of Cup Winners' Cup final, when Budućnost won the trophy. Then the game was played in Magvassy Sports Hall.

Vukčević added that the atmosphere in the Morača Hall in the second leg will be great.

"It will be a great spectacle in the Morača Hall. For that game we are preparing spectacular choreography, something not seen in the past in this hall. I can’t reveal the details, but I can say it will be great,” Vukčević added.

As Srđan Markoč, Secretary General of Budućnost, told ehfCL.com, the interest of fans for the game in Hungary is very good, and as well as the three coaches, they expect several more to travel by private cars.

"The team will come to Veszprém on Friday on a charter flight via Budapest. Besides the players, coaching team, and people from the club and journalists, in the plane there will be about 70 supporters, friends and club sponsors," he said.

And Miodrag Strugar, one of most loyal fans of Budućnost, added: “Since I was little, from the time legendary Vinko Kandija came to work in Podgorica (when it was called Titograd) I haven’t missed any of Budućnost’s games. For the last 10 years I have followed Budućnost in a lot of games outside Montenegro.

“In Veszprém I expect a tight game and great defence from Budućnost. Everything is possible. Finally, I expect that Budućnost will win the trophy.”
