Thüringer HC advance despite draw against Valcea

DAY REVIEW: The German side reached the quarter-finals of the EHF European League Women after a thrilling draw in Romania

On the first day of reverse fixtures of the EHF European League Women 2022/23 group phase, three losing sides gained at least some revenge.

Asma Elghaoui produced her best performance to help SCM Ramnicu Valcea snatch a point from Thüringer HC, but the result was still enough for the German side to claim an early quarter-final spot.

Roxanne Frank's 46.15 per cent save efficiency lifted Paris 92 past Praktiker-Vác, avenging the French side's last-gasp defeat in the first match two weeks ago. In the last match on Saturday, Sola HC suffered their first defeat this season – 25:21 against DVSC Schaeffler – and failed to book an early quarter-final ticket.
