Coach Florentin Pera says that Romania will approach the match against Denmark with confidence

After victories against Chile (44-19) and Serbia (37-28), the tricolors occupy the second position in Group E with the maximum number of points, but the goal difference is less than the leader Denmark.

The hosts of the Women’s Handball World Cup, the Danes, are among the favorites to win the trophy, but coach Florentin Pera hopes for a good performance from our girls.

“We approach the match against the home team Denmark, one of the main favorites for the World Cup, with confidence and the desire to play well.

The pressure will be on Denmark, our performance against Serbia created confidence and motivation in our team.” Florentin Pera saidfor GSP.

Determined as the best player in the first two matches in the group, Eliza Bucheski did not begin to identify the weak points of the opponents.

“It is difficult for me to say that Denmark has a weak point. They have a good defense, they have valuable players in all positions, they are among the favorites for the gold medal, they play at home…

We know that this is the most difficult match in the group, but we will try to rise to their level and give the fans a good match.” – said Eliza Bucheski.
