Our Story with one of the most talented Serbian players Zoran Tosic began while he was promoting Nike Mercurial Vapor Rosa football boots in which he was playing the 3rd round UEFA league clash against Standard Liege, in Belgrade on Thursday.
These boots are of very interesting color which is little unexpected for football, but I feel faster with them on my feet, were Zoran Tosic`s opening words.
Knowing that we could not 100 percent rely on outspreading rumors that he was new „Old Trafford`s” acquisition, we asked him about the next game in Serbian Super League when he will once again break the acceleration limits in his new Nike boots.
The game in Cacak against this year`s UEFA Cup participants Borac FC is expecting us. I`m really hoping that the weather and pitch conditions will be fine so we could exhibit our strength and play in our style. We are going there to pick up three points because our aim is to win game after game, advancing towards a new champion lore.
On the match against Standar Liege, it was strange to many, when you were seen on the left back position.
The last game I played on that position was on debut for the national team against Finland, and for U-21 selection and Banat FC before. I`m much more comfortable when playing more forward, having more space for sharp gaps. I wasn`t playing that role for a long period, so I did not enter the match relaxed as usual, stated Zoran and proceded
We were not playing with big pressure on our shoulders. Our group is very tough and no one was expecting anything “big” I would say. We lacked fortune, conceived some easy goals, and missed some scoring chances. We were close of getting some points, but it is all past now.
Then, Zoran`s mobile phone rang and he was informed by mysterious voice that Manchester United accomplished his working permit. It was a signal that from January Zoran will exchange Partizan`s black and white kit for Man United`s red.
Well, now I know that I am leaving Partizan, but let`s wait January when we shell have more facts. I am honored to be their wish, I mean, who would not. From my childhood I was dreaming of playing for United. Now, the dream comes thru, so I shell enjoy it. I am still not aware of what is going on, Tosic confessed.
Our Young star, who will continue his career under Sir Alex Ferguson`s leading stick, from march next year will face new temptations in national shirt.
How do you estimate world cup qualifications series and Serbian team efficiency until now.
We had a really good start, winning three games of four, with one defeat in France. We look revived, no matter some old players are still there. Most of us are in great form so the results just follow. Coach Radomir Antic implanted in us necessary self confidence and self appreciation. He succeded in composing of strongly organized squad. I truly believe we can achieve even better results, so we all hope that we can push harder and see what`s new in South Africa, concluded Zoran Tosic for srbijasport.com
