For the fifth year in a row, Kristianstad has advanced to the group stage of the Champions League. However, the team lost the premiere against Danish Gog by 33-24 after losing a five-point lead.
Important conclusion
Tonight they managed to keep the game together in a better way but could never really challenge the Romanians when the match was decided. A lot because the home team had a magnificent 38-year-old in goal, Makrem Missaoui.
When the Swedes were on their way Missaoui closed again, while at times he got some help from the goal frame. On the other hand, Kristianstad failed to keep the defense together and many times the home team was able to run through and score some simple goals.
Two teams move on from the group and the goal difference can become important in the end. With the nine-goal loss in the first match, it was important not to let it run too far. Bucharest led for a while with six balls but a strong finish helped to halve it.
Despite this, Kristianstad faces a tough challenge. zero points after two games played and one jumbo plastic.
