Very good rugby in Petrovac
After a little more than two years of existence, rugby in Petrovac has risen to the level of the first league. Torpedo is playing quite well, as shown by the results at the beginning of the season. Although these are the first games that the people of Petrovac played in rugby 15, they proved to be quite good, we can even say above expectations. Last Saturday, the weakened Dinamo from Pancevo was a guest at the stadium in Veliki Laolo, but with a plan to attack and take all the spoils from the Braničevo district.
Nervous start to the match
The match started at a very slow pace, with a lot of technical errors on both sides. Due to the strong winds, a different outcome could not be expected, the players of both teams controlled the ball and the game as much as possible. From the point of view of the spectators, a match with too many interruptions that lasted an unusually long time. The first points were waited for quite a long time The bad game in the introductory part of the match was interrupted by Milan Kuzmanović in the 27th. minute who took responsibility and with a great breakthrough brought the advantage to the guests from Pancevo 5-0. The same player successfully converts the transformation to 7-0. The open game definitely adorns the young Dinamo team, which had a very young line-up in this match. One of the mysteries of the match is the question why Torpedo is playing in its 22 meters, it would be logical for everyone to get rid of the pressure in the defensive zone with a shot. In one such situation, the Torpedo escort failed, where Dinamo won a penalty in the opponent’s 22-meter zone.
With a fast and open game in the line, she provided a lot of space and games in the scrum, from which Pancevo scored an essay for 10-0 through Stefan Dramićanin, who managed best in the crowd. Kuzmanovic was precise in the conversion for 12-0. Torpedo definitely had a great advantage in physical strength, but in the first part of the game he did not use that advantage. The experienced youth of Dinamo achieves the essay with lightning action and transfers the momentum to their side. that a dispute occurred that a dispute occurred. At the moment when the game of Petrovac accelerated, the advantage in the mass came to the fore, the breakthroughs were reduced and situations of advantage were created. Such a situation was used by Miloš Vujčić, who carried out a quick penalty and with an unstoppable breakthrough scored an essay to reduce the score to 12-5
Higher level of rugby in the second half
The second half brought much better and more uncertain rugby than it was at the beginning of the match. Try spaces rested in the first half of the second part of the match, so that the final unfolding took place at the very end of the match. It was played mostly in Torpedo’s half of the field, Dinamo was constantly attacking, but the defense of the home team was at a high level. In 60. minute Kumanović managed to use the hole and with a great breakthrough scored an essay for 19-5. We mentioned at the very beginning that this is a game that is very necessary for both teams, Torpedo to gain self-confidence and believe in his strength and game, and Dinamo to crown its young team of good games from younger categories in the senior competition.
It was supposed to be 70. minutes to scram Petrovac felt that he could put pressure on young Pancevo. An uncertain ball came out of the scramble of Dinamo, which was sent by the demi Torpedo Stefan Janković to the half of Dinamo with a strong shot, the ball was accepted by the back line of Pančevo, which formed a counterattack action, but the last pass was bad. he employed Novica Dimitrijević in the flood, who slowly introduces the match into the thriller finale and reduces the score to 19-12. However, today the excellent Kuzmanović does not allow uncertainty in the match and creates a great position for Ivan Voštić who gets the ball out of the field and puts an end to the match.. Referee Lelik played the end with the result 24-12 for Dinamo from Pancevo.

3 things for takeaway
Physical superiority and slow game Torpedo
Physical strength was definitely on the side of Torpedo, which proved it in the breakthroughs However, the slow ball from the cancer gave Dinamo too much time to consolidate the defense again and is ready to wait for a new attack from the home team. It is crucial for a team that is physically dominant to use that dominance. We can only assume what Petrovčani would look like if they played at a pace where the ball comes out of the hand after 3-4 seconds, which is accepted by the next player at full speed. Much stronger teams than Dinamo would be a big challenge to defend.
Milan Kuzmanović
So what if we are in love with Milan Kuzmanović’s game? We should remind readers that Milan is still a U18s and was born in 2004. YOB, and has already become the main decision maker in Dinamo. He had several illogical shots during the game, but he is a player who scored 19 points and who was also an assistant in the remaining essay, that is, he directly participated in all 24 points. Definitely a great pledge for the future of rugby in Pancevo.
Discipline in the game
A team that is disciplined, that follows the referee’s signs and where the captain communicates successfully can definitely gain a bigger advantage. When the referee plays a penalty against the team, everyone automatically has to retreat ten meters from the marked place, put themselves in a defensive formation and wait for further development of the situation. It is a part of the routine and culture in the game that is built over the years, and you should work on it and use the maximum benefits, and there are many of them. Both teams did not show an enviable level of discipline, Pancevo were a shade better. If both teams would raise the discipline in the game to a higher level, we are convinced that it would have a positive impact on their results.
