Before the match
Stine Jørgensen: I do not expect to proceed to the Main Round, but I hope for it. You should not take anything for granted, but I think we have a good chance
Zita Szucsánszki: We made a really bad match in Denmark, but now we will play different, supported by the home crowd we could be much sharper than at away court. We have to improve our defense, to be agressiv and tackle the opponents players. Offensive play has to be much more fluent, and we have to put the ball behind the keeper, to not allow fast counter attacks to them. In the first match they succeed in everything they did, and we had a really bad day.
