  • KOSOVO'S LOSS FROM THE MACEDONIAN REPRESENTATION
16 August 2017

Kosovo A representative on Saturday night recorded the second consecutive loss in Group C of the European World Cup Qualifiers "China 2019".

After defeat between weeks in Estonia, Kosovo suffered losses in Skopje and Macedonia with 87:74 (19:22, 21:19, 23:13, 24:20).

In the first two quarters the game was balanced, and this is best proved the result 40:41 for the benefit of Kosovo. But when it was thought that our basketball players would go out on the floor and play even more strongly, the contrary happened were the opponents who did so, so this part of the game met them completely. The third quarter ended with figures 23:13 for the benefit of the Macedonians. In the last ten minutes Kosovo in the first minutes tried hard to narrow the lead, but it was impossible since Macedonia fired almost from all positions and this eventually led them to triumph with 13 points difference.

The most efficient among Kosovo was Fisnik Rugova with 17 points, while Macedonia the most distinguished was Jordan Theodore with 24 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists.

Now Kosovo has a 2 loss and one win in Group C of the European World Cup Qualifiers "China 2019", while Macedonia also has the same balance, 2 losses and 1 victory, while Estonia is the only 2 wins.

However on Wednesday, Estonia is Macedonia's host, and on August 19, Estonia is a guest of Kosovo.

Despite the fact that Estonia is leading the Group, now the three teams are unlikely to qualify, but should be welcomed Wednesday, between Estonians and Macedonians, where things will begin to become more Clear in this group.

It should be noted that Kosovo and Macedonia, the only victory they have scored among themselves, where our representative on August 2 defeated the Macedonians in Pristina with the figures 72:68, and 10 days later was Macedonia what triumphed over Kosovo, But this time they recorded a 13 point victory.
