What a thriller in Skopje. After 60 minutes, both sides were given an early Christmas present: HC Metalurg took their first point of the group phase and Austria's Fivers managed to avoid defeat away from home in European competition for the first time since a 27:26 win at Cyprus College (CYP) on 11 October 2008. Both sides had their chances to win but in the end, Metalurg can count themselves fortunate having score the last two goals. With four points on their account, Fivers are now level equal with Toulouse, sitting third in group A. GROUP A HC Metalurg (MKD) vs Fivers (AUT) 33:33 (16:19)
A new role for Zlatko Horvat For 20 years, HC PPD Zagreb was his home, nobody suspected the club legend might leave. But this summer, Zlatko Horvat left Zagreb for Metalurg. In Skopje, the left-handed penalty expert is not only playing in his traditional wing position but often features at right back. Against Fivers, Horvat was his side's top scorer with seven goals, alongside Martin Serafimov, including five penalties. TEXT: EHF / Björn Pazen |
