Eight teams on the hunt for a quarter-finals ticket
While four teams from four nations have already booked their places in the Machineseeker EHF Champions League quarter-finals, two more countries are certain of having representation in the next stage of the competition.
We have reached the period when the decisive matches are imminently coming, and it looks like the biggest one will be against our biggest rival, Veszprém. The first game in such a match-up is of great importance to make sense of the return match. The arena will be jam-packed, so the atmosphere will be good.
It is my first game in the Champions League with Veszprém so I can’t wait for this game, it will be a hard game for sure. We are ready for this kind of game and we are waiting also for these kind of games now. This is the best part of the season. Play hard, play smart and we will see what happen.
We will try to do our best to play our handball and we know that Kiel is a very difficult team. But we will try, we will go 100 per cent and also we will have supporters with us, so we will give our best and try to win.
Nantes show in this season in the French championship and in the Champions League that they are a really strong team, very complete attack and defence. They are the favourites, we play without pressure.
When I was in Plock, we were the best defence of the season in the European Cup. Plock defence is quite special, a real trademark. It’s going to be two really tough games, over 120 minutes. We are united, we know where we want to go and that very beautiful things could open up to us.
The game has already been named one of the biggest games in Danish history. The games against GOG is always intense and really anything can happen. It depends on who has got the upper hand on the day, but at home we will always see ourselves as favourites, making the best foundation for us before the away game.
