Vucinic on the eve of the match: “Unity is strength. If we don’t run, if we don’t fight, and if we don’t run for one another, it will be difficult for us. The guys have given their all in training, and I like that. It all depends on us. We have four games left, and we’re taking it one step at a time, so we’ll see what happens.”
