Veszprém Hc 🆚 Dinamo Bucuresti Handball Highlights EHF Champions League 2024
Veszprém HC (HUN) vs Dinamo Bucuresti (ROU)
new Veszprém coach Xavi Pascual will face his former club, which he steered to the EHF Finals in Hamburg in May 2024; besides, centre back Luca Cindric also played for Bucuresti last season
Bucuresti’s new coach David Davis was Veszprém’s coach from 2018 to 2021
while the Romanian champions won all three group matches by now and top the group alongside Sporting, Veszprém’s streak came to a halt with the 30:39 defeat at Sporting CP in round 3
by beating dethroned champions SC Magdeburg in the final at Cairo after overtime, Veszprém became club world champions for the first time
Nedim Remili, who was awarded MVP of the club world championship, is currently the top scorer of the Machineseeker EHF Champions League with 25 goals; the best Dinamo striker is Icelandic new arrival Haukur Thrastarson with 14 goals
Dinamo top the Romanian league with six wins in the same number of matches — the latest a 36:25 victory at Odorhei — while Veszprém beat Eger 39:25 to have a clean record in the Hungarian league too
I think that it will not be an easy match, as Bucharest are playing very well this season, they remained undefeated in the first three rounds. A tough 60 minutes await us, as they are good in all aspects of the game. Their defence is difficult to break through and their fast breaks are also outstanding, as there have very fast players in the squad. We cannot lose our concentration for even a minute.
