No problem for the "lionesses" in Portugal

Montenegrin women's handball team had no problems achieving their fourth victory in the EHF Euro qualifiers.

The visa for the continental championship was won earlier, and the "lionesses" defeated Portugal for the second time in this cycle, now Senhora da Ori was 34:26 - so Suzana Lazović's team is a millimeter away from winning first place in the group, which could bring a good draw for the European Championship.

Montenegro patiently built its way to victory, with the advantage reaching five goals in the first half.

Minor problems were seen in the opening part of the second half, when the Portuguese team came close to minus three, but three consecutive goals by our national team marked the end of the home team's dream of avoiding defeat.

The difference only grew, and in the 49th minute, young Anđelina Orbović scored from a seven-meter throw (her first goal for the senior team) and brought the score to double digits for the first time - 31:21.

The most efficient players in the Montenegrin team were Đurđina Jauković and Matea Pletikosić with seven goals each, while Dijana Mugoša and Nina Bulatović scored four goals. Anastasija Babović stood out in goal with 12 saves...
