EHF Cup First Leg Group Stage last qualifying round
Csurgoi - USAM Gard
Streaming will start at the last minute. Stream starting soon …
Stressful wait.
I can see a lot of empty seats in a small sports complex
Our away kit is a flashy mixture of yellow and green
Referees are from Montenegro
Very small field of play.
HAZAI vs VENDEG = HOME VS AWAY
1st half
Good defense by USAM but still conceding the first goal
Good save by opposing keeper Rok ZAPONSEK wearing shirt no. 32 on 2mins
Acquevillo unorthodoxically makes it 1-1 on 3min
Sanad missed an easy chance on the wing almost immediately after
2nd save by the opposite keeper
Padolius annihilates one shot but no one is there to get the rebound so the opposite number 3 scores
Then Acquevillo runs and his shot on the opposing low corner. His second on five minutes being played
Penalty conceded on 7 mins. Scoreline is 3-2
Acquevilo gets a third one with his arm slightly bent 3-3
Desbonnet saves a low shot on 8 minutes
On the counter attack Sanad gets two goals on the wing, the score now on 10 min 3-5
Good defense again with passive play
Miss by Acquevillo too casual on 11 min
Remi missed his long throw 12’
6 mins without goal for the locals
2 mins for 22 Padolius 13’
Just getting into the right space 4-5
Empty goal strategy 4-6 goal by Quentin Dupuy from USAM
Same number of players and it is 5-6 on 15 mins
LUCKY ESCAPE as Quentin got hold of the ball in the middle in extremis
Not using Guigou when opposition is one man down
3rd for Sanad 5-7 on the front post
Quick ball to Sanad by Remi and it is now number four for Sanad
6-8 on 17’44
Save from opposing keeper on almost carbon copy…
Excellent strike by their 95 7-8 19’26
Huge extension and low on the left post by Acquevillo. His fourth as well
But their 21 Potochunuk scores a beautiful one on the top corner 8-9 2045. Goal cancelled as time out was given. This is the only explanation as to why the score line only reads 7 for the locals.
Magnificient shoot top corner and this time number 8 is accepted on 22 minutes
Guigou’s goal should have stood…
Penalty scored by their number 3 so now 9-9 so time out 23’
Not very good in attack suddenly and Csurgoi on the ascendancy
However, we can hear the USAM supporters
Costly steps by Padolius on a counter after a save by Remi Desbonnet
6 minutes without a goal now for USAM
Block in defense motivated again ?
Benji Gallego on his own., His first 9-10 26 min
Kovacevic makes it 10-11 from the wing 27
On the counter 10-13
Fifth for Sanad
2 for Prandi in the space of 2 minutes
Raucous USAM supporters albeit only five or seven of them !
On the wing Kovacevic again makes it 11-13
48 vs 76% scoring and yet only two up on the scoreboard.
And the cherry coke got on the bed as I wanted to upload some pictures.
2nd half
Luc Tobie 24 bent arm 11-14 on the restart
Inattention by Remi and he picks the ball into the net 12-14 32’
Wrong block so chance to get back to 1 and Quentin Dupuy gets 2 min as well as their 45 scores a clever goal 13-14
On the counter 14-14 in the empty net 34’
Big save by new keeper no. 29 PALLAG
Better defense by the red locals
Nyateu is too slow
Really bad start in 2nd half
Important save Remi but then number 45 in the middle of a pale defence scores 36’ 15-14
Understandably a time out is called.
Two minutes for Csurgoi number 3 and penalty converted 15-15
But, the huge number 95 makes it 16.15 on 38’ whilst they are playing one player short
Sanad gets his 7th on the wing 16-16 38’
The 45 again acrobatically makes it 17-16 39’
Superb triple INCREDIBLE save by their keeper on 40’
Easy in the middle Tobie on 41’ makes it 17-17
Not a foul to my liking. Should have been our ball and a lack of concentration leads to Nagy scoring and Padolius gets his 2nd two minutes.
As a result, it is 18-17 on 42’
Penalty with the opposing number 8 also getting 2 minutes; however, the missed penalty by Sanad as it was too cheeky and very costly 43’
Now losing by 2, dangerous territory.
Great KUNG-FU on 44 minutes to make it 19-18
Passive defense from USAM thus 20-18
Poor attack follows
Why Quentin Dupuy gets two mins???? on 47 minutes. He was a tad too sarcastic maybe
Why a red card??? He must have said something.
Too many suspensions are sapping USAM’s strategy but by the same token they are not playing very well and this is worrying. 5 sanctions of two minutes against 3 for the locals.
Important goal in the counter attack after offensive foul 20-19
Then easy shot 21-19 on 48 minutes. I am not happy with the display and Csurgoi are growing in confidence.
USAM gets the ball back and to Pallag disappointment there is huge goal in the middle by Prandi 21-20 with just eleven minutes left on the clock.
Another ridiculous goal conceded 22-20 on 50 minutes
A bit of false hope as score becomes 22-21 then Sanad on the wing front post leads to a score of 22-22.
Another easy goal in the middle by Csurgoi ‘s number 95 when Remi did not fight. It is now minute 51.
Then follows a big miss on the square so still a score line of c23-22
Paul gets the nod with 8 minutes left
Costly miss by Prandi as the Hungarian line player easily dispatches a low one, making it 24-22 on 53 minutes.
Combination from Prandi to the line player makes it 24-23.
Their number 21 scores an easy one and again 2 ahead 25-23 with 5 mins left
We thought it would be simpler and it is USAM’s own downfall I must admit.
As evidenced by a damaging 3-goal deficit when the clock agonisingly reads 26’22 in the second half.
The one-man advantage is not a goal but is there any hope on 26’36 when it is 26-24
It becomes 27-24 as Csurgoi number 4 saves acrobatically and again it should be our ball.
On 28 minutes, losing by four now at the worst possible moment.
Gallego falls with opposing number 45 receiving a red card with one min left so they are playing with 5 players and yet nobody shoots early 28-25
Nightmare in the 2nd half
Where are your watches referees from Montenegro? Time should have been stopped …. Gain at least of 7 seconds. Big miss empty net due to the lost 7 seconds.
TERRIBLE RESULT !!!!! Not great to see.
It is going to be tough next Saturday. We must bounce back and well.
