Györ beat CSKA to finish top of group B
Although a draw on Saturday evening would have been enough for CSKA to retain first position in group B of the DELO EHF Champions League, Györi Audi ETO KC proved too strong for the Russian team, especially in the second half, and won 31:24 at home to top the standings.

Second-half flurry helps Györ to win
As neither team could establish more than a two-goal lead, the first half saw an extremely tight battle. The home side were in front by just one goal at the break, 14:13.
However, in the second half, Györ improved their defence, while Stine Oftedal and Viktória Lukács were crucial in attack. The gap between the rivals started to grow rapidly and reached 10 goals (28:18) by minute 53, before CSKA somewhat reduced Györ's advantage late in the game.
