WAR WITH REFEREES AND ITALIANS:

4.8 sec  in Italian measuring lasts 9.8 sec.

4th quarter Serbia leads 10:9. Last 4.8 seconds last in Italian time 9.8 seconds - I personally measured with stop watch!

Italians, in front of their  audience, tried by all means to defeat Serbia with a big help of judges!
The last quarter teams entered a draw - 7:7, and Serbia without coach Dejan Udovicic on the bench as judges - Stavropulos Moliner from Greece and from Spain -  shown him a red card for the protest.
Eventually Serbia could win in  regular time , because at the end of the match was +2 (10-8, goals from Andrija Prlainovic and Filip Filipovic)
Italians were first reduced to 9:10, only to achieve equalizing goal in the moments WHEN THE TIME EXPIRED!
In the last attack the Italians had only 4.8 seconds, but time wasn't running few seconds while attack lasted. Time started runnig when Italy scored goal.
So, it was 10:10, Penalties were deciding in which Serbia was better - 13:12 (Soro defended twice)!
