A tale of two halves for Esbjerg Esbjerg had only nine court players due to a slew of injuries, but they still snatched a win against Podravka, who extended their losing streak to four games. Esbjerg goalkeeper Rikke Poulsen saved nine shots in the first half – but Esbjerg’s goalkeepers did not save a single shot in the second half. Although the Danish side's lack of depth could have been their undoing, the advantage from the first half was enough to help them seal a one-goal win. TEXT: EHF / Adrian Costeiu |
