Reigning champions reached semis by golden match

In the tense and exciting quarterfinal duels of the Champions League Women reigning champions KTS ENEA SIARKO TARNOBRZEG reached the semifinals after a golden match against QUATTRO MORI CAGLIARI. ETIVAL ASRTT had less stress in their home duel compared to the opening match in Novi Sad.

Both quarterfinal legs of the match between KTS ENEA SIARKO TARNOBRZEG and QUATTRO MORI CAGLIARI concluded in five matches. The Italian side clinched victory at home and the Polish champion succeeded in Tarnobrzeg so the golden match was introduced for the first time in the quarters this season.

“It was really intense ” said Elizabeta SAMARA. ”It is very difficult to play against players who have nothing to lose. They have perfect motivation; they loosen their hand and they are so dangerous. Elizabet ABRAAMIAN really put me under pressure. She played at a high level. The same goes for Tania PLAIAN. It was very close. I think in the end it was the experience that prevailed.”

After big drama in the opening leg in Serbia the return leg was comparatively a calm affair in France. ETIVAL ASRTT beat Novi Sad in four matches with Aneta MAKSUTI scoring once again for the Serbian club. On the other side Jieni SHAO scored twice.

“Maksuti played amazing and she gave us some work to do. JIENI beat her but she really needed to give her 100 percent. Novi Sad played with a young Serbian team which I think is amazing for them. We could feel their energy and it was hard for us. But we kept on strong. Camelia did not lose the match in the Champions League and we are very happy ” said Marie MIGOT.
