This year Telekom Veszprém's roster consist of 20 players. In our new series we are going to ask the same 20 questions to each player. We are moving up by the jersey number, our sixteenth subject was Mirko Alilovic. You can read the chat with him below.
What is your favorite food?
My favorite food is burek, just like Terza’s.
What is your favorite drink?
It is called cockta. It is a Slovenian drink. It is similar to coke but you can only buy it in Balkan countries.
What is your favorite color?
My favorite ones are blue and red.
What is your favorite movie?
I have a lot of favorite movies but let’s stay with the Lord of the Ring trilogy and the Hobbit trilogy for now.
Who is your favorite actor and/or actress?
Probably Mark Wahlberg.
Who is your favorite musician?
I like listening to new house songs but nothing special.
What is your favorite song?
It is difficult because there are a lot of them.
What is your favorite book?
The last book I read was called The pathology of Evil. It is about the mind of Adolf Hitler. I really liked that one.
What is your favorite animal?
My favorite animal is the lion because it is the king of all animals. Fierce and strong.
What are your habits before a game?
I do not have too many. I like to have my own peace at home. When I come to the Arena I always do the same warmup.
What is your proudest moment in your career?
It was when I was at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic games. I think that is the most memorable moment in my career with all the medals I won. I think that to be part of that Olympic family and village is something amazing. To stand in front of 100.000 people in a stadium and to go out and represent your country is something I will never forget.
Who is your role model?
My role model was Andrey Lavrov, a Russian goalkeeper, who was one of the best goalkeepers of his time.
What would you be if you were not a handball player?
Well, probably a bus or a truck driver. My father worked with trucks and I also liked cars so it would have been an obvious decision.
Other than handball, which sport do you like the most? Which team and/or player do you support?
I like basketball. I wanted to play basketball when I was young. I had a hoop at home where I practiced a lot.
What do you like to do in your free time?
I do not have much free time next to my children and family. When I am alone and have some days free, I like to lay on the couch. That is what I prefer.
Which is the prettiest city you have ever been to?
I loved Barcelona. It is not a big city and they have nice weather. I think London is also amazing.
What is your dream car?
My dream car is a Range Rover Sport.
What do you fear the most?
Sharks maybe. I watched many documentaries about them, they are so efficient killers, and you never know when they will attack you.
What is your motto?
Nothing is impossible!
Are there any skills you wish you had learned?
I would like to ride the bike more because now I cannot because of my contract. I also would like to learn Portugeese.
