Victorious LAUGCUPA

Veszprem - PSG

New festive Champions League is on but let me tell you I thought the new branding was an April fool's joke but it is true and this is sickening.  

Having worked at home and not travelled like Em ad Marie L did only caught up the second half live

In one of the best arenas in European handball ! Where fans can be as exemplary as the players !

17-17 half time

Kentin Mahe gets 19-17 32’

Balaguer on the wing zig zag 19-18 32’40

Lauge surprises Palicka and two adrift a minute later

Cupara saves towards his post against Kristopans

Prandi reduces the arrears and gets Dragan two minutes 20-19 36’40

Keita makes the most of it

Palicka scores in the empty net 20-20 38’

Cupara saves the penalty brilliantly just before min 40 so 22-21

Omar puts it to the sword 23-21

Another Cupara save

25-22 42’30

Cupara on fine another fine save on a missed penalty by PSG Handball

Lauge adds number 26 and 27

And even in-form M. Grebille does not surprise Cupara

Palicla concedes from Marguc but Balaguer ensures it stays 28-24 46’40

On the counter number 29 by Marguc

 Rodrigo got quickly dropped against his team mates

6/7 Kristopans at the minute.

As expected Steins is very quick and gets it 30-26 48’40

Empty goal ruin.

Another Lauge missile to which Matt responds with a goal this time 31-27 50’20

Palicka goal just high enough to avoid Cupara getting to it 31-28

Ligtevari has its jersey in pieces

Lauge again 32-28 51’40

Lucky penalty for PSG

Cupara does save it and so well. Comme un torero en fusion ! Its bullfighting festival time after all.

32-29 through DB but Lauge knows the way as we get to the last 5 mins mark

Sole does find a way 33-30  and Lauge responds 34-30 56’

Kristopans has another one 34-31 a minute later

But then Cupara saves acrobatically

Lauge ensures 3 ahead with 60 seconds left

But in a flash down to 2 35-33

Double trap of counter attack punished 36-33 45 seconds left

Two last line play goals of absolute beauty

36-34 12 seconds left

And it is how it finished !

MAN OF THE MATCH award would go to LAUGE or CUPARA of course.
