Hypo´s last chance

The postponed match of Round 3 between Hypo and Győri Audi ETO will take place on Wednesday in the EHF Women´s Champions League.

With one point in the last two games, the Hungarians can reach the top 8 already tomorrow, whilst for the Austrians, only a victory will count in the race for a Main Round / Cup Winners´ Cup spot.

Győri Audi ETO have learnt their lesson from the first round loss against Randers and clashed the Danes in the return match thanks to a magnificent performance, cheered by nearly 2000 spectators. The Hungarians celebrated their third straight victory and took back the lead in the group and are four points ahead of their Wednesday opponents Hypo.

On the Austrian side, it seems that coach András Németh´s team is back on track again and the good performance has been underlined last weekend in the EHF Women’s Champions League, where right-wing Alexandra do Nascimento is in fantastic goal-scoring form, netting 12 times against Metz, which meant the first two points for the Austrians in the tournament.

The two winners of last weekend meet in Austria – but the starting position is completely different: the Hungarian All Star Team Győr starts as favourites in nearly every match, and this will also be the case against Hypo, the Austrians will need a huge sensation to win this match.

The Austrian - Hungarian duel will be a special one for Hypo’s Hungarians Bernadett Temes and Viktória Soós, who both played for several years in the Hungarian league.
