16.01.2021, 01:30 GROUP A REVIEW: Thanks to an easy home win, the Russian side bounced back after last week’s loss in Metz |
||
After losing their first game this season last weekend in Metz (26:27), Rostov-Don were back on track today, hosting German side SG Bietigheim. The first leg between the two teams saw Rostov snatch a one-goal victory in Germany, but today’s match was a clash between two sides at either ends of the spectrum with Rostov leading the group before round 11 while Bietigheim were last. GROUP A
Rostov’s defence Viktoriia Kalinina’s five saves in the first half do not tell how dominant Rostov were defensively. Bietigheim’s backcourt struggled to find any solutions in the first 30 minutes, with only Xenia Smits reaching the net from long distance. The Russian side pulled out its best defensive performance this season in the DELO EHF Champions League, with only 21 goals conceded. TEXT: EHF / Kevin Domas |
