Debutants Antalya aiming high

The Turkish team are in their maiden season in EHF club competitions, but so far, they have impressed with their performance.

Antalya have eliminated Greece’s A.E.S.H. Pylea, Ukraine’s HC Galychanka Lviv, Portugal’s Sport Lisboa e Benfica, and fellow Turkish side Izmir BSB SK on their way to the semi-final, and now they have a good chance of reaching the final.
