Dunărea Brăila – Rapid Bucharest 28-27 (16-12) in National Women’s Handball League

A poor start to the season for the speedsters led to the replacement of coach Kim Rasmussen by David Ginesta Montes.

He was also unable to revive the team and after another defeat in the Champions League, there was a failure with “Duneray” Brail.

After a controlled first half by the hosts, Rapid leveled the game and restored the difference in the table, managing to equalize in the last minute.

But in overtime, Brylens scored the goal that made the difference.

“Rapid” already has three defeats in the first five stages, exactly as many as it had for the entire last season. David Ginesti Montes’ men are only in sixth place with 6 points, 9 behind leaders Rymnik-Wilch.
