Bitter setback for Linz: Dream of the Champions League semi-final burst!
The women's team from Linz AG Froschberg experienced a dramatic departure in the quarter-finals of the table tennis champions League. After an impressive 3-0 win in the first leg against Saint Quentin in France, everything seemed to be an undisputed move into the next round. But the second leg brought an unexpected turn: the Linz women lost 0: 3 on Saturday in front of a home backdrop and also had to hand in the decisive golden match with 0: 2. This was a bitter disappointment, since in the previous year against exactly the same team threatened a similar fate, but at that time it could be averted with a golden match won, how krone.at reported.
In the second leg, Britt Eerland, Suthasini Sawettbut and Ivana Malobabic were not able to achieve a victory, neither in singles nor in the golden match, which is held in the "Best of Three" mode. This renewed defeat not only hurts due to the missed opportunities, but also reflects a déjà-vu: the Linzinnen always seem to give the decisive games out of their hands again and again, which brings the team into a critical situation. The results underline the need to rethink your own strategies, while fans are looking forward to the next season in which everything might be able to run differently, so laola1.at.
