Exciting draw on Tuesday, series of matches from Wednesday

In the world of handball, MKB-MVM Veszprém is seen as a well organized sport enterprise not only a constantly developing champion team. The Hungarian team has had only a stage victory in Champions League so far, whose schedule will be determined by the draw which starts at 12:30 pm on Tuesday in Vienna.

 

 

They might get the title defender team.

 

Carlos Ortega’s team has to have a clash with a Spanish, Danish or German opponent to get into final four. SG Flensburg-Handewitt is the title defender which had six victories and four defeats so they hardly got the 4th place in the best 16.

 

“If we were in a radio’s request program, I personally would choose the Spanish Naturhouse La Rioja as our next opponent whose skills are still quite far from FC Barcelona. The least pleasant matchup obviously would be if we had to play with the title defender - Danish and Swedish - Flensburg which reached the highest level after three sequent final four. We have the least amount of information about the Danish Aalborg who has been in table 16 only once, but if we had to face them, we would get the necessary information in time “– Serbian Momir Ilics said on the way home from Montpellier to Telekom Sport News Service; he scored important and spectacular goals on Sunday.

 

 

Analyzing videos on board

 

The Spanish Coach, Carlos Ortega and his adjutant, Javier Sabaté are going to provide information. Two hours after the CL match, they were analyzing videos about out next opponent team, Belarusian Brest for two hours and making notes.

 

“We are facing such a burdensome period that I’ve never experienced in Veszprém - Carlos Ortega said - We are having 6 games within 14 days; firstly against Brest in a SEHA League match on Wednesday and then we are joining the Hungarian Championship where we want to win in the playoff. There are three months until CL’ Final Four and in order to qualify, we need to play without compromises. I can enumerate six or seven teams which have the same goals but we can’t forecast anything. Our task is being in good form, and we hope that injuries will not make our game difficult.”

 

Complicated schedule

 

In the draw on Tuesday – the leaders of the European Association try to make the complicated schedule of 2015/2016 Champions League clear – MKB-MVM Veszprém will be represented by Csaba Hajnal, who said that within 38 year he missed - due to ill - only 2 games.
