Reistad propels Esbjerg back on winning course
Team Esbjerg stopped Rapid Bucuresti in their revenge for a 32:34 defeat in round 4 of the EHF Champions League Women. EHF EURO 2022 MVP Henny Reistad shone for her side, scoring 15 out of 17 attempts, helping her team to stay close with three top teams in a fight for a quarter-final spot. The strong Romanian side did not have their best defensive performance as they were leapfrogged by Esbjerg due to goal difference.
"It was a tough match and a good one between two very strong teams that have performed very well in the Champions League this season. We are extremely happy about the result, and there is at least still a chance to get higher than fourth place in the group.
We did not start the game well and not as planned. Team Esbjerg is a team that will take advantage of your mistakes and if you are not careful you can look up at the scoreboard and you are behind by 10 goals. We did not quit despite that and we fought till the end."
