Another great performance and a new big win for Vardar

Нова одлична игра на Вардар и висока победа во СЕХА

Vardar - Tatran

Vardar has once again managed to show strength and ambition as well as the fact that they are among the best teams in SEHA Gazprom League beating Tatran in Skopje with 38:21 (20:13). This win will leave Vardar on League’s top and keep Tatran on the bottom.

Vardar’s defense was working remarkable led by Strahinja Milic who has managed to gather 15 saves. Their attack was on the other side amazing as well scoring 38 goals which says quite much for itself. ‘Black-red’ have simply given their fans a night to remember. Vardar was 13:8 up with a bit more than 10 minutes left on the clock in the first half even without Marsenic, Dibirov and Angelov who were not in the roster for the match as well as Sterbik who has watched the game from the bench. Five minutes into the second half Vardar was already 25:15 up which was a clear sign of what will later be a clear, dominant victory.

Rastislav Trtík, Tatran coach:
Well-deserved victory for Vardar. They have a vast selection of players. They have during the summer managed to sign some amazing players from all around Europe and with all those names in their roster it was difficult for us to play our tactics. Each our technical mistake ended in Vardar scorin an easy goal. They have powerful back players who have decided the match today, that was the reason for our loss.   

Raul Gonzalez, Vardar coach:
I am satisfied with the result and I`d like to congratulate players on their performance. It was hard to play because we needed extra focus. We’ve had a good defense 5-1 and a good goalkeeper in the first half when we’ve managed to enlarge the gap. In the second half we’ve managed to keep the tempo up and I can say I’m happy about that because we have played the whole match on a maximum level.

Stefan Jankovic, Tatran player:
Vardar has proved to be one of the best teams in Europe which can surely reach both SEHA and CL F4. They’ve managed to convert our technical mistakes into counter-attack goals. We are looking forward to upcoming matches.

Martin Popovski, Vardar player:
I’d like to thank coach for giving me a chance to play in SEHA League. I hope Vardar’s handball school will in the future provide the club with some quality young players. I’m glad we’ve managed to show why we were named favorites ahead of the match.
