In a second friendly of Slovenia preps, Partizan won Danish 2017 double crown winner FC Kobenhavn 3-2.

Newcomer centre-back Nemanja “Nema” Miletic made his Partizan debut but played it as a right-back.

Partizan took the lead on 13 when other Nemanja Miletic crossed it for Jovanovic followed by poor clearance from Kobenhavn defence and Mihajlovic`s short pass for Jovanovic who volleyed the ball into the left corner of the net.

Before opener, Vulicevic had an opportunity but his shot was saved by alerted Andersen.

Filip Kljajic made a full-stretched save on 21 but minute later Partizan goalie was powerless to stop edge of the box blast from Kvist into the top right corner.

Partizan took another lead on 48 when Kosovic sent a lovely low through ball for Jovanovic followed by slightly angled shot into the net and brace for young Partizan striker.

Jovanovic was close to score hat-trick on 57, but Danish keeper came out winner.

Boss Djukic made 10 changes on 62, only keeper Kljajic was subbed half-time.

Kobenhavn equalized on 70 after poor Markovic`s header back to keeper Jovicic, Verbic seized on it and sent the ball into the empty net.

On 76, Ilic sent his trademark through pass and Pantic made the most of it with his angled close range sliding shot for a final 3-2 score.

Miroslav Djukic`s impressions after the game:

– I`m quite please as we had a good pace all the way through against one serious opponent, notable participant of last year`s CL. Both halves were played good. This team has to grow more and to play better though.

It`s also very important for young forward to bag a brace. It does a lot for his confidence. I`m quite pleased with Jovanovic`s performance overall.

Newcomer Nema Miletic can play both as centre-back and right-back. He is one serious player for the big stage.
