In the quarterfinals of the Erste Liga regional ice hockey competition, the Romanian team ACSH Gheorgheni defeated, away from home, the Hungarian team Dunaujvaros 6 to 1 on Thursday.

Also in the quarterfinals, Corona Braşov defeated Sport Club Miercurea Ciuc, away from home, 5-2 and now leads 2-1 in the direct matches with the defending champion for a place in the semifinals.



We now go to tennis. Monica Niculescu stopped in the quarterfinals of the doubles event of the WTA 1000 tennis tournament in Dubai, which has prizes up for grabs worth almost 2,800,000 dollars. The Romanian-Belgian pair Monica Niculescu / Kimberley Zimmermann was defeated, on Thursday, by the pair made up of the American player Desirae Krawczyk and Demi Schuurs, from the Netherlands, 6-0, 6-4.



Next, football. On Thursday CFR Cluj missed the qualification in the round of 16 of the European Conference League competition.
