||
Kosovo had never won a competitive away game before, but they shocked Romania with a dazzling attack and a strong defence, taking a convincing 30:25 win in the Qualification Phase of the EHF EURO 2022. After a strong start with a win against Montenegro, Romania collapsed entirely this week, losing three points against Kosovo, after the 23:23 draw earlier this week. GROUP 8 Romania vs Kosovo 25:30 (12:16)
Romania’s demise is Kosovo’s win Once a powerhouse in European handball, Romania have not qualified for the EHF EURO since 1996, and things are looking bleak once again for Rares Fortuneanu’s side after losing against Kosovo. The Kosovar side will still have to produce great games against Montenegro and Sweden to proceed to the final tournament in Hungary and Slovakia, but their first away win ever in the Qualification Phase of the EHF EURO is surely a sign that things are on the up for them.
