Fifth match in seven days for Veszprem in Ljubuski
Veszprem u Ljubuškom igra peti susret u tjedan dana
Handball holiday is all set to happen in Ljubuski with Telekom Veszprem coming to visit. That will be their first face-off of the season. Izvidjac are on the bottom of League's table with 3 points from the victory against Tatran and Veszprem are on the other hand second right after Vardar and that is where they are planning to stay. This will be fifth match in only seven days for Veszprem as they are coming to Ljubuski after a loss against Zagreb, draw versus NEXE and victories in both Presov and Velenje. It is hard to expect for team of Ljubuski to surprise reigning champions but considering rhythm Hungarians are going through and home-team's motiavation...
Xavi Sabaté, Telekom Veszprem coach:
This will be our
fifth match within eight fays. We're at the moment really exhausted and we have
to use every last ounce of energy in this one. We respect all opponents and
we're trying to prepare throughly for everyone. We'll arrive to Ljubuski after
a long trip which can only make our job more difficult against a team which
will surely be highly motivated playing on home court.
Dávid Fekete, Telekom Veszprem player:
We are heading to a
very difficult game, because in last few weeks we needed to travel hundreds of
kilometers and play a lot of matches in a short period of time. Hopefully that
won’t have an effect on our play. We have never played against this team, so it
is not going to be easy, but we will do our best to win the game.
Zdenko Grbavac, Izvidjac CO coach:
I'd like to use this
opportunity to invite all our fans, despite of the loss against NEXE, to come
and support us against one of the best teams in Europe this Saturday. We'll
play best we can and hopefully it will turn out to be a real show in
Ljubuski.
David Mandic, Izvidjac CO player:
We all know
everything about Veszprem, a very good team against which we'll have to deliver
best performance we can. I would also like to invite our fans to come and
support us and I promise we'll give our best to deliver best resistance we can.
