Crvenka defeat Radnički from Sombor

In the local derby in round two of the Handball Super B League championship, Sivac’s handball players beat hosts Crvenka 27:26 in Crvenka, with the halftime score 16:14 in Crvenka’s favor. Sivac’s experience won the day—how else can one explain Crvenka’s defeat after they led 21:16 in the 43 minute? The young Crvenka players probably thought the win was secured, then relaxed and made several technical errors, which the experienced Sivac side took advantage of to earn a deserved victory. The winning goal was scored literally in the final seconds by match MVP, pivot Marko Živković. Sivac’s handball players have earned three points from two matches, while Crvenka have played only once and recorded a defeat. In round three of the championship, Sivac 69 host Voždovac from Belgrade, while Crvenka travel to face Mačva in Bogatić.

Hajduk 1912 are currently fourteenth in the table with 6 points, and will host Železničar from Pančevo in the next round, the only team to have won all seven matches.
