The court is being prepared for the pre-show, but the Györ fans are already in full voice. The noise in this amazing arena is going to be crazy. Kristina Liscevic of Valcea has appeared to sing - she's as an accomplished singer as she is a handball player! 17:45 It's set to be the last appearance in the Champions League for several players, including Isabelle Gulldén and Amandine Leynaud - the former going to Lugi in Sweden, and the latter retiring. The teams are being introduced, beginning with Vipers. Sixty minutes remain to decide the EHF Champions League Women 2021/22 season.
Vipers defended well in Györ's first attack, and Lunde did not have to do anything - at the other end, Isabelle Gulldén made scoring her 50th goal in the EHF FINAL4 look easy. We're starting with Amandine Leynaud and Katrine Lunde in goal. Vipers concede their first penalty and Andrea Pedersen is brought on to defend it - but Veronica Kristiansen scores, giving the Hungarian team a 3:2 lead. It's been a high-octane start to the game and so far the teams are playing on an equal level, wasting little time in taking the ball back at the start of each attack. Györ look to have a bit more speed and efficiency right now, but it's still early days. Katrine Lunde hasn't had the same start to this match as she did yesterday, while Amandine Leynaud has saved three shots from eight. 😮 Jana Knedlikova! #ehffnal4 #ehfcl /zgYlsfcmvX A couple of minutes later, Jana Knedlikova does score and Ambros Martin instantly calls a timeout. Vipers had a chance to take the lead but Isabelle Gulldén's penalty hit the posts. This match is being played in front of another record crowd for women's club handball - 15,400 people inside the MVM Dome. The drought is ended with a penalty, successfully taken by Anne Mette Hansen.
18:30Ī 6:0 run from Vipers gave them a 13:10 lead, with Györ not scoring for nine minutes and 40 seconds. There's less than three minutes to go in this half. Ole Gustav Gjekstad calls his first timeout, to steady his side's nerves as Györ edge back to 12:14. Adding that the attendance is a world record for women’s club handball, it will definitely be difficult for Vipers in the second half. However, the Hungarian side still have broad support in the MVM Dome, and their fans have really made it noisy when it mattered. The final result back then? A painful loss on penalties against CSM Bucuresti. In the EHF FINAL4 era, Györ have been only once down at half-time in five finals before today’s game against Vipers. It was both of a case of Vipers really upping the ante on the defence, but also Györ’s inability to create and convert clear-cut chances in front of experienced goalkeeper Katrine Lunde, who finished the first half with a 33.3 per cent saving efficiency. But in the next seven minutes, the Hungarian powerhouse scored only three times, with turnovers and misses piling up unexpectedly. For the first 13 minutes, Györ’s attack has been nothing short of superb, as the Hungarian side scored 10 times and looked to be in the clear. ĮHF journalist Adrian Costeiu gives his assessment of the first half:įor the 15,400 fans in the MVM Dome and millions watching at home, on TV, this has surely been a roller-coaster ride. That gives Vipers a two-goal buffer at the break, but they're playing the record champions.
With the last second Nora Mørk manages to get the ball past Amandine Leynaud - it's reviewed by the referees before being given. 18:45 HALF-TIME | Györi Audi ETO KC 13:15 Vipers Kristiansand
