Jerry Tollbring brought an important win for IFK Kristianstad in the race for EHF Champions League TOP 16 in Celje with the last 7-meter shot – 28:27 (13:13). The captain of the home team Luka Zvizej scored equalizer only five seconds before the final buzzer. The Swedish coach Ola Lindgren took time-out, three seconds left, but unexpectedly, Celje’s right back-wing Blaz Janc made rough foul on one Kristianstad’s player 16 meters far away from the post in the last second.
He deserved red card, while Kristianstad got a chance to score from a 7-meter throw and win.
