If in the last two European competitions Krim Mercator’s handball players escaped victory by a hair’s breadth, unfortunately they were completely helpless in Sunday’s match at Arena Stožice. French Metz, who are undefeated this season, took advantage of the Tigresses’ mistakes and won the EHF’s match of the week 25:34.
The Krim Mercator players are unfortunately returning empty-handed from Erd, Hungary. Many parallels could be drawn this time with the game a week ago against CSM Bucuresti. The Tigresses were breathing down Ferencváros’ neck all the way, but in the end, despite a big eleven goals from captain Ana Gros and fourteen saves from Barbara Arenhart, they came up short. The game ended 28:26.
Four times in a row it went well, but unfortunately the fifth time it stopped. Two goals were conceded (29:31), and Krim Mercator handball players had to concede to their rivals CSM Bucuresti in Saturday’s game at Arena Stožice. They are still on eight points in this season’s EHF Champions League.
