27.03.2021, 04:00 QUARTER-FINAL REVIEW: a two-goal win in Togliatti gives Herning-Ikast a good chance of going through |
||
In the EHF European League Women, Herning-Ikast Handball had been on a four-match winning run before a trip to Togliatti, but the Danish team still managed to extend it. After winning the quarter-final first-leg 31:29 in a very hard-fought match, Herning have a good chance of progressing to the semi-final. However, nothing is yet lost for Lada, who will travel to Denmark with the hope of turning things around.

Norwegians make crucial impact Similarly to many previous matches, Herning-Ikast relied heavily on their Norwegian back court players, particularly centre back Helene Fauske and right back Stine Skogrand, who both made a telling contribution in Togliatti. They combined for 15 goals, almost half of their team’s tally, and contributed a lot to Herning-Ikast’s victory.
