Dream debut for Gloria, Györ survive scare and win MOTW
The EHF Champions League Women threw off with the Romanian derby in Round 1, leaving CSM Bucuresti disappointed in Bistrița's Teraplast Arena following a massive performance by CS Gloria 2018 BN's goalkeeper Renata De Arruda. FTC-Rail Cargo Hungaria managed to defend their home ground despite good efforts by Nykøbing Falster Håndbold.
Im really proud of my team. We did everything we planned to do today. Defense was looking really solid throughout the whole encounter. I feel like we really deserved this win here today against a really good CSM team.
Congrats to Bistrita on this win here today. Their goalie was splendid today, and they simply knew how to punish every mistake we made. We were really hoping to take these points back home, but unfortunately for us they will stay here.
I saw in the locker room that our new players were a little bit shy and nervous, maybe because of the atmosphere and the number of spectators awhich is, in my opinion, why we had a slower start to the match. We felt like we can't lose this one, despite all the mistakes in the first half. In the second, our defense got better, our goalies grabbed some extra saves, and we managed to score some easy goals. In the end, I can say I'm happy with the result.
We opened the match well doing everything we agreed to do before the game. FTC ended up winning this one due to individual quality of their players, and on top of that we made too many mistakes in the attacking half. We have to continue the hard work.
