Two entertaining matches, in the superb atmosphere of the sport hall in Odorheiu Secuiesc (2.000 spectators for each match!) were played during the past week-end between
Romania and
Czech Republic. The first game was characterized by a thrilling draw: Romania managed to avoid the defeat thanks to the Cip Deva's hero
Robert Matei, who scored a double in the last minute of the game.
In the second battle Romania found the first ever victory over the Czech squad: once again was
Robert Matei the match winner.
Below you can have a look at both matches details and above all enjoy the impressive
photogallery carried out thanks to the help of
Miklos Molnar through the local newspaper
Udvarhelyi Hirado and our precious and irreplaceable collaborator from Romania,
Cristi Vornicu.
