It seemed that the handball players, after two away defeats in the Champions League with PSG 27:32 and, made their way to the first two places in the group very complicated. They guarantee a direct promotion to the quarter-finals and avoiding a tie-in in the 1/8 finals next year. – Of course, it’s better to avoid the 1/8 finals, because then you can work physically and mentally with the team. If you promised me now that we will take the sixth place in the group, we will miraculously get out of it, but then we will be in the Final Four, I would sign up for it blindly –
Duyshebaev: Six points will give us the first place
The Kielce players now have fourteen points after ten rounds, two more than PSG, Telekom Veszprem and Barcelona. However, there is no doubt that everything is still in the hands of the team led by. This is because the Polish champions will play twice at home in the four remaining matches. In addition, with weaker teams: with Motors Zaporozhe and at the end of the group stage with Dinamo Bukarest. The team from Kielce will also face Telekom Veszper and Flensburg away.

Even two home wins can ensure Łomża Vive taking first or second place in the group. This is because PSG and Barcelona still have matches between themselves and someone has to lose points.
– Barcelona and PSG have a very good schedule, because they will play against Flenburg and Veszper at home, and they will be visiting Zaporozhye and Bucharest. Veszprem has a much harder task, because Barcelona and PSG are away and us and Porto at home. We have to do everything we can to score six points in four matches, and then we will take the first place in the group – says Talant Duyshebaev
How does the coach from Kielce see an opportunity in the quarter-finals? – (sigh) Please tell me from which place the best ladder will be? From the first, where Flensburg can wait in the quarter-finals, if he is fifth in our group, and by then Germany will heal all injuries. Or maybe it’s better to take second place and in the quarter-finals, for example, to play with Aalborg or. Maybe it’s better to be third, to fight in the best “16” with Elverum Handball, but then again THW Kiel, Pick Szeged or Montpellier could be waiting. There are still a lot of matches until the end of the group stage and it’s hard to calculate. We just want to fight for victory in the group – adds Duyshebaev.
His team will play their first match in the new year on February 16 against German Flensburg.
