Vipers again! The final of the EHF Champions League Women 2022/23 saw Vipers Kristiansand defending their title against FTC-Rail Cargo Hungaria with a powerful 28:24 win, as their right back Anna Vyakhireva was named MVP. In the 3/4 match, Györ held off a great comeback from Esbjerg to take the win and third position.

This is a dream come true. I came here to Vipers because of the champion spirit, the team spirit, and to win this trophy. I made a good choice. I am so proud of myself and the team.

They were the best team all season, playing a very fast-paced brand of handball. Congratulations to them, because they deserve it. Now, we are very sad — we lost the final — but in a few days we will celebrate this amazing season, from the record win against Most, to the comeback against Metz and this [EHF] FINAL4. It has been amazing. Now we suffer, but we will celebrate later. Also, bringing so many fans into the arena in Budapest was simply amazing. It is something that needs to be celebrated too.

It means a lot for us because after yesterday it was really hard to bounce back. We just wanted to come here and win the title. To win the bronze medal is nice, but it was tough. We expected them to rest a bit for the domestic league, but they pushed on and on.

To win tomorrow [Sunday] would be something that I cannot name yet. We do not have too much time to prepare, however, I truly believe that we have an advantage by playing freely.

When two defeated teams face each other the result will always be unpredictable. What I can say is that I expect a really tough match. Both physically and mentally.
