Euro2000-Yugoslav fans get on their bikes
EDEGEM, Belgium, June 19 (Reuters)(DS) - Two Yugoslav supporters
arrived at their team's training camp on Monday after making a
1,600 kilometre bicycle trip, bringing messages of support to
Vujadin Boskov's squad.
Bojan Gligoric and Milorad Majkic spent 10 days on the road
from Novi Sad in Yugoslavia's Vojvodina province to reach the
squad, carrying 700 greetings to the team.
"We were on the road for 10 hours a day and it was hard work
in the heat â I think we will go back by bus," said Gligoric.
The pair travelled through Hungary, Austria and Germany and
plan to be in Bruge to see Yugoslavia's final Group C game
against Spain on Wednesday.
"We don't have any tickets but hopefully the Yugoslav
Football Federation will be able to help us out," said
24-year-old Gligoric.
It is not the first time that Majkic has pedalled to see
Yugoslavia in action â two years ago, the 53-year-old cycled to
Saint Etienne, France for Yugoslavia's World Cup match against
Iran.
