LONDON (AP) — Montenegro dealt water polo powerhouse Hungary its second consecutive loss of the London Games, beating the three-time defending Olympic champion 11-10 helped by three goals from Drasko Brguljan.
Montenegro goalkeeper Milos Scepanovic denied Denes Varga’s close-range shot as the buzzer sounded to preserve the win in a tight match between two medal contenders.
Hungary also dropped its opening match to gold medal-favorite Serbia, which was the country’s first loss in men’s water polo since the 2000 Sydney Games.
Tuesday’s win provides a boost to Montenegro following the team’s opening loss to the United States.
