Dr. Casl President Martin-Tino CASL speaks before second leg against Bursa this Friday May 18th (18:00)

Croatian champion Dr. Casl has 3:2 (12:9) advantage from the first away leg of 2017/18 Seamaster ECLW final but actual ETTU Cup Women winner Bursa Buyuksehir Belediyespor is capable to erase that lead. President of Dr. Casl Marin-Tino CASL explained that he made a risky choice with line-up in first match (DOO no. 1 LI no. 2 YU no. 3)…

“But it was worth it. We had a chance to win this game 3:0 and almost certainly win the title but unfortunately people play not numbers. Our leading player was such impressed by her debut in the ECLW finals hence she played far below expectations and her real value. I must be honest HU Melek played very well” stated Martin-Tino CASL.

However President of Croatian side is satisfied by the outcome of the first game:

“At the end we won and it`s the most important thing. Even set-ratio is not so bad: + 3. I hope DOO Hoi Kem will not have a stage fright this Friday and she will play like she usually does. I hope that our girls are capable to defend advantage they gained in the first game. But nothing is certain yet”…
