Men’s U18 side face crucial test in Kosovo today

Post published October 25, 2018

Fresh off of their 47:19 victory over Albania yesterday, the GB Men's U18 (Youth) team are in action today in the IHF Trophy - European Zone championship with a tough match-up against Moldova in their final preliminary group game.

The game throws-off at 1pm (UK time) and can be watched on the live stream HERE http://stream.itprishtina.com/1tetori/u18/

Both teams have one win and one loss to their names so far in Pristina, Kosovo, and know that a win today will put them through to the final (gold medal match) on Saturday (27 October), following a rest day tomorrow.

Speaking ahead of the game, Interim Coach Chris McDermott said:

"It's really, really important as it will dictate how we will finish the tournament - either competing for gold or bronze.

"Having seen them play they are a really, really good team and it will be a really competitive game.

"Both teams can win but hopefully we can prepare our lads as well as possible to try and clinch that victory."

Bobby White's U20 Men's team are on a rest day today before resuming their competition tomorrow, also against Moldova.
