Foreshadow: Barca - Veszprém

Telekom Veszprém will step on court today at 20:45 against the Spanish champion Barca in the EHF Champions League, in away. The game will be broadcasted live by Sport 1.

The parties played against each other not more than 5 days ago in Veszprém. Barca controlled the match from the first whistle and did not allow Veszprém to get close to them. Although the game was close sometimes, before the end of the first half, Barcelona took advantage of a few mistakes from the home team and gained five goals lead, from which four remained for the break. The performance of Veszprém improved by the second half and they managed to equalize 8 minutes before the end, but unfortunately because of a series of mistakes, the ′′ Építők′′ could not win. The Spaniards continued their undefeated series with a 34:37 victory in the 2020/21 Champions League season.

Barca played a game in the Spanish championship between the two matches against Veszprém. Barcelona, who are leading the Liga Asobal hosted Anaitasuna in Palau and confidently won 40:23 against the 11th placed team in the championship. With this, they are 18 wins out of 18 games in the league.

Telekom Veszprém has not shown his best in his last two matches, because after the defeat against Barca, David Davis's team had a hard time in the K&H League against Csurgó and lost a point against them. The team suffered further losses, because Andreas Nilsson was dropped out of the travelling team shortly before leaving, and Vuko Borozan could not travel to the game a bit before the airport (more: https://telekomveszprem.hu/en/article/statement_5803) so the Hungarian champion's job will be even harder against the Spanish champion.

Go Veszprém!
