To end this cycle, we will have our first guest, the Faroe Islands selection.
Montenegro is the group leader with eight points, while the French team has two points less. Our girls won the first match in Torshavn (33:28).
"We could have had all the wins, but we made that mistake against Iceland. We were good in Portugal, we showed desire and character, the younger players took advantage of the opportunity. We have a match against the Faroe Islands. We are going for the win, we are playing in front of the home crowd. As always, everything is up to us, the most important thing is to come out with a cool head, to fight for each other, to play disciplined and I think the result will be in our favor," said one of the most experienced players in our team, Matea Pletikosić.
A lot of young players got a chance in Portugal.
"I think we seniors need to give them full support, so they feel good, so they have self-confidence, which is important for the future. I hope they get a chance in the last match."
"They are a very good team, they play fast Scandinavian handball, a seven-on-six attack. We showed that we can handle them. Our young players are eager to prove themselves, but the problem may be that they haven't played many big matches and that experience they lack," concluded Pletikosić.
Armel Atingre briefly reflected on the duel with Portugal.
"We played well in Portugal, we want to win against the Faroe Islands, a team that also qualified for the European Championship," said the reliable goalkeeper.
Tomorrow's duel will be particularly emotional, as it will be a farewell for Itana Grbić and Ivona Pavicevic, who recently decided to say goodbye to the jersey with the national emblem.
"We want victory and first place both for them and for our fans who, I believe, will fill the Bemaks Arena in large numbers tomorrow," Armel pointed out.
The match at the "Bemax Arena" starts at 6 pm, and admission is free.
