Narrow, hard-fought 28:26 win over biggest national rivals MOL-PICK Szeged helped Telekom Veszprem secure their 28th national Cup title. In a really tough game coach David Davis and his guys managed to open the gap to two (14:12) by the half-time whistle which proved to be crucial in this one with Szeged failing to close the gap and get back into the match in the second half. Once reigning SEHA - Gazprom League champions managed to widen the gap to four goals (24:20) a bit over five minutes before the final buzzer the deal was sealed. Omar Yahia, who is in great form from after the WCh which was played in Egypt back in January, once again lead his team offensively finishing the match with six goals. Petar Nenadic and Rogerio Moraes added five each while Vladimir Cupara finished the game with nine saves.

Veszprem are once again having a great year – they secured the Cup title in a direct battle against biggest national rivals PICK Szeged and are also doing great in the Championship where they are currently first, 13 points ahead of Szeged which has four games in hand. In EHF Champions League Round of 16 they were dominant against Macedonian Vardar 1961 and now they will look to secure another trip to Cologne through a quarter-final battle against Nantes.
