Spain - Russia (25:23)

Spain for the semi-final, Russia for the Olympic qualifications

  • Published:

This is the last game on the schedule today so both teams will know what they need. If Denmark defeats Germany, then Spain will already be in the semi-final and the game becomes irrelevant for them. The same goes for the Russians if Sweden don't defeat Hungary, but if Sweden defeats written-off Hungary, then Russians have to win

The Russians weren't comfortable watching the outcome of the Denmark versus Sweden game. It finished with a last second goal and a draw, which means that Sweden are in great situation as far as their battle against the Russians for the Olympic qualifications is concerned. Russia have three points, Sweden two and a game against written-off Hungary. That game is first on the schedule today and if Sweden win that, then the Russians will need to win here. Not even a draw, with which they would have has the same number of points as Russia, will not be enough because Sweden have better goal difference right now. 

The Russians can blame themselves for not having a secured spot in those qualifications. They lost stupidly points against Sweden, they had a great chance against Germany but they were left empty-handed. 

- The game against Germany is the second one in which we failed in the end. That might be due to lack of experience in such games - said Pavel Atman, but also claims:

- We are confident we can defeat Spain. We will play for the win, they are a team we can play against.

Their advantage is definitely freshness. They had a few days to rest, while Spain struggled last night to defeat Hungary. 

- So far the EC games have shown that we can face anyone. Our problem was finishing the game. There might be some psychological moment there.

They were down 25-20 against Germany in the 45th minute. In past that would mean that Russia will fall apart. But not under Dmitri Torgovanov. They managed to make a comeback in only seven minutes, and the result was 26-26 in the 52nd minute. They allowed the Germans to get a two goal lead again, but they came back again and had the last attack for the draw. Zitnjikov missed a well built shot. 

- We played that action throughout the tournament, practiced it in Novgorosk, we knew what we were doing - said unlucky Zitnjikov, who is led in his club by current Spanish selector, Cadenas. 

- He is a great tactician, reads the game great and it will be difficult for us. Spain play in the offense like my Wisla, and they have good defense, tall and agile players. 

Torgovanov gave them a day off on Monday.

- Long awaited. We did everything possible to completely distance ourselves from handball. We managed to recharge the batteries. 

Today's key game, unless Hungary cause an upset and defeat Sweden earlier, and automatically push Russia into the qualifications, was announced by captain Timur Dibirov:

- I would like to see the match decided in the last minute or the last seconds and that we win the game. We are learning from our mistakes and we won't repeat them. I know what to do in the and, we talked about it, we learn from bad experiences

Spain made a lot of rotations yesterday aware of the fact that they will need a lot of strength for today. Sterbik stayed on the bench in the beginning and then went in in the second half, but he couldn't catch the ball so he was soon back on the bench. He should start today's game.They struggled against Hungary, their defense was non-existent, Nagy shot 9/9. 

- We were good in the offense, we scored a lot of goals, created a lot of chances, but the defense didn't work as we'd like it to. Nagy caused a lot of problems for us and we have to do better against the Russians - said Alex Dujsebajev who finished the game at 3/6, after previously 2/12 at the tournament. 

Once again they played without one of their key players, Guardiola, who won't be playing today either, according to the Spanish media. 

- The team is aware that we have to be at the highest level because Russia are very complicated - said Cadenas, who added Maqueda to Morroso in the defense instead of Guardiola. 

The Russians are playing for the Olympic qualifications and that is why we have to get out there with a lot of intensity.
