Jovanka Radičević. A handball player who we believe needs no introduction. But in short: since last season, the all-time top scorer in the EHF Champions League and a player with a rich sporting career that, despite being 37 years old, still has no end in sight. If we put aside her top achievements for a moment, two words describe her best. Passion and Dedication.
Tamara Mavsar has extended her contract with Krim Mercator for two more seasons, until the end of the 2025/26 season!
Unfortunately, the Krim Mercator was not able to say goodbye to the calendar year 2023 with a victory. With a reduced squad, they had to concede once again to a strong Metz side. Despite another outstanding performance by Radičević (ten goals). The final score was 40:31.
After two home victories in Stožice Arena and a draw in Tivoli Hall, the Krim Mercator handball players had to concede to French Metz. The guests took the reins of the game right from the start and held them until the end. The score was 22:28.
Krim Mercator suffered their worst defeat of the season in Mioven, Romania. Despite a fighting performance, they were always chasing the hosts, but in the end they had to concede the upper hand. The scoreboard read 27:22 after 60 minutes of play.
The Tigresses are hot. Even after two weeks of European club break. In the fifth round of the elite EHF Champions League, in their home town of Tivoli, they competed well against the three consecutive European champions, Vipers Kristiansand, and in the end they shared the points (24:24)!
Exceptional, excellent, fantastic and the adjectives to describe her could go on and on. Who? Ana Gros, of course! The captain of the Slovenian national team, who will strengthen the #KrimovaDruzina next season. She will move to Ljubljana from Győr, Hungary, where she first shone under the European spotlight. She has signed a contract until 2026.
Krim Mercator’s handball players made a strong start to the EHF Champions League Fourth Round game. Determined to come back from the away leg in Denmark with two new points. But unfortunately it didn’t work out. The plan was spoiled by Markéta Jerábková, who scored with four seconds left to make it 33:32. The Tigresses will now face a new European test in less than three weeks when they host Vipers Kristiansand in Hala Tivoli.
The Krim’s winning streak continues! Also after Saturday’s match against last year’s finalists of the elite EHF Champions League, the handball players of the Hungarian FTC-Rail Cargo Hungaria. The atmosphere in Stožice Arena was electrified, the fight on the floor was even harder, and the joy at the end was indescribable. 32:26 for the third win in a row and the second in a row in front of the home fans.
