RRI Sports Club – Handball

Last week brought about poor results for Romanian womens handball. Both teams playing the main group phase of Champions League lost. In Group A on Friday, HCM Baia Mare lost on home turf to group leader Rostov Don of Russia, 22 to 20. The visiting side had the lead almost for the entire game, with the exception of the beginning of the first half, when the score was 3-all. Halfway through the second half, HCM managed to make it 16-all. The moment that tipped the balance in favour of Rostov Don was when Valentina Ardean-Elisei got a red booking for a rough tackle on Ana Sen.
