With the “right” in this year’s Handball Premier, Drama. The Macedonian team defeated Doukas 34-29 in “Dimitris Krachtidis” in the match that “opened the curtain” of this year’s championship and goes with the best possible psychology to North Macedonia for the rematch with Tikves next Saturday in the European Cup.
The game was a derby for the longest time, with the young ASE team being particularly competitive and Drama not being able to escape the score.
Thus, the match was decided in the last 15 minutes, with Drama “running” two long runs of 3-0 and 5-0, initially turning 25-25 (44′) into 28-25 (50′) and 28-27 (53′) to 33-27 (58′).
The five minutes: 3-3, 8-6, 12-9, 13-13, 16-14, 19-17 (m), 21-20, 24-22, 25-25, 28-25, 31-27, 34-29
