The big question of the first match of our semi-final team in Kolding was whether the biggest surprise Croats if they can continue their march, or a Romanians against which his hitherto impeccable series is interrupted.

Nenad Sostaric’s team started this time nervous, with missed ziccers and sold balls. Camila Micijevic carried her team on her back, but in the case of the Romanians, Denisa Dedu repeatedly got in the way of the Croatian attempts, while in the attack Cristina Neagu and Lorena Ostase, who replaced Crina Pinte in the stands , they took the advantage. The Croats could find themselves at a multiple goal disadvantage early in the match with the power of novelty, they had to close 4-8 after Sostaric’s time request. The Croatian exchanges did their best, backtracking under the leadership of Katarina Jezic de Siófok and Larissa Kalaus, who still shot very efficiently, producing a series of seven goals. The Romanians struck only twice in twelve minutes, and Neagu also scattered more balls, giving the parties a 14-10 Croatian lead over the break.

It was clear that the Romanians had little room for variation and the Croats were able to play their advantage wisely. There was also a difference of six goals, at which point the Romanians sounded the alarm under Neagu’s control. They even made it until two o’clock, but Sostaric’s request for time interrupted the process and the Croats, who were defending well, were able to catch the match. Podravka BL players, who lacked BL players but enjoy the sympathy of many fans Croatia got another clear victory (25-20) and was close to the semifinals.

Jezic closed with four goals, while White Castle defensive goalkeeper Tea Pijevic made nine shots at the joint.

In group 1 in Herning Montenegro he was very distraught for the olympic champion RussiansHowever, like his match against the French, he still failed to score. Ambros Martín’s guard, without keys, only struck once in the first six minutes, but was able to take the same advantage after a three-goal deficit. Kim Rasmussen’s team also did not give up and tied, and the score was 13-13 during the break. The hand-to-hand fighting lasted until the hair, at which point the Russians went to 24-20, one of which held until the coup, although Montenegro was able to attack to equalize. The top scorer on the field was DVSC Montenegrin pitcher Jelena Despotovic with seven hits.
