Montoro: “We can surprise Veszprem"
His 210 cm, 105 kg and feet of size 50 are his first cover letter. Angel Montoro is the most recent transfer of Wisla Plock. He arrived in the Polish city in February, after his quick pass through French League with FENIX Toulouse. All pressure on Veszprem
Wisla Plock finished fourth in Group B and they know that the favourite team of this knock-out tie is the Hungarian team. For that reason, the Polish side will have nothing to lose and everything to win.
The Spanish player is very sober with the possibilities of his team.
Finally united
The story behind Montoro's arrival to river Vistula was very simple as coach Manolo Cadenas wanted him in his team, and Montoro desired to be trained by Cadenas. But it took a while until both meet in the same team. Progress tangible in one month time
This 2014 did not begin well for Montoro, because he did not stay at the EHF EURO for an injury in his back, and in Toulouse he was not comfortable. But with his transfer to Wisla Plock he started a new stage in his sporting life.
“The French handball philosophy is not good for my game. Nowadays in Wisla I scored more goals and I played better in defence in one month than in six months in Toulouse. My life has did a 180 degree turn,” says Montoro. Further information Follow the Match of the Week Orlen Wisla Plock vs MKB MVM Veszprem live on ehfTV.com on Sunday at 19:00 hrs local time.
