Serbian sportscasters Sreten Raskovik and Stevan Stevanovik will also arrive to Skopje with the Vardar flight this evening. The two became household names in Macedonia for their passionate comments and, frankly, cheer-leading for the underdogs.

No Macedonian television purchased the rights to broadcast the EHF Champions League tournament, which reduced the nation to watching the games through the Arena sports cable package, or online – again using the Arena streaming service. This prompted comments from many that the Serbian sports channel proved more consideration for the team that is an inseparable part of Macedonian national pride than Macedonian TV stations. Many have asked that the two Sretens host the welcoming ceremony in Skopje.
