The Serbian water polo national team faces a duel with Romania in the third round of Group A of the World Championship (Wednesday, 10:00 AM) in Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A victory is expected for Uro\u0161 Stevanovi\u0107’s<\/strong> squad, securing them second place in the group, which would ensure an easier opponent from Group B in the Round of 16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Potential Surprise Opponent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

That opponent could unexpectedly be Japan<\/strong>, which defeated Australia 12:11 in the last round of the group stage. The decision came down to the final quarter, which the Asian team won 6:4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japan played against Serbia last year at the Olympic Games, where the eventual Olympic champions won in the group stage by a “mere” 16:15. Japan is, in any case, on paper an easier opponent for the “Dolphins” than Australia, which taught Serbia a lesson in Paris last year, also in the group stage (8:3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Scenario for an Upset<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the event of a sensation and Romania’s victory over Serbia, our national team would face the defeated team from the Spain-Hungary match (2:45 PM) in the World Championship Round of 16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
