RK Celje PL smash RNL to help RK Vardar!

RK Celje Pivovarna Lasko, once again, cleaned the way to RK Vardar Skopje for winning the first place in Group B which put them directly at quarter-final of the VELUX EHF Champions League! After reigning EHF CL winners Vive Tauron Kielce, the best Slovenian side beat German champions Rhein Neckar Lowen 37:31 (20:13).

it was a pleasure to watch Mackovsek (9), Zarabec (8) and Janc (8) in fantastic performance which give another boost of selfconfidence for the team coached by Branko Tamse, but nothing more, as even after those scalps, RK Celje Pivovarna Lasko will decide about TOP 16 placement against PPD Zagreb in the last match of the Prelimnary Round.

It looks unbeliavable that teams which beat European and German champions could stay out of TOP 16, but that is most realistic finish of the group, in which Zagreb have to “cover” -2 from the first match in Celje (28:30).
