It was an inglorious end for PAOK in the EHF European Cup. Although the Thessalonians fought, they met with defeat 21-27 from the Respect in Mikra, which practically means that they failed to qualify in the “32” of the institution, like Olympiakos and AEK.
The Croatians had +5 from the first game at home, but the “black and white” with an excellent first half managed to lead with +3 (13-10), leaving everything open for the upset. Somewhere there, however, the guests stepped on the gas, shot up the difference and reached victory.
Tasos Triantafyllidis stood out offensively for the “two-headed team of the north” with five goals, while for the winners Ivan Dumencic scored seven goals.
Now the “black and white” turn their attention to Wednesday’s derby against rival AEK in Mikra at 18:00 for the 6th matchday of the Handball Premier.
