EHF Champions League
Brest and Györ share spoils again
The games between Brest Bretagne Handball and Györi Audi ETO KC have been extremely tight and exciting in recent years, and the first leg quarter-final of the Women's EHF Champions League was no exception.
In the end, the match ended in a 21:21 draw, which leaves the tie very open ahead of the return leg in Hungary on 7 May.
It's a quarter-final, it's very tough and I'm very proud of my team. We wanted to be strong in defense. We have a week to settle the details and I hope we will play an even better game in Gyor. It's a weird feeling that we have because we are proud of what we have done but we would have hoped to do a little better. To be frustrated to draw against Gyor means that we are ambitious.
We know how difficult it is to play here, in this atmosphere, against a very good team full of confidence. The start of the match was not the one we wanted but we finally found the way. We have to work during the week to find solutions. I expect a difficult second round, we have to be prepared for that.
