We wish our ladies best of luck for this game! Lisy Hetting will play her final game in the women‘s national team im Montenegro.
While the joy after the victory against Bosnia was big, Luxembourg’s ladies were thrown back to reality when they watched Switzerland beat Montenegro. Coach Mariusz Dziudrzia shares his thought on the situation: „The situation changed immediately », says head coach Mariusz Dziudrzia after victory by Switzerland. „We travel to Montenegro with the goal in our mind to win the game and qualify through our own success. It would be the wrong approach to enter the game and try to reduce the deficit in a potential loss. We watched the game Switzerland – Montenegro closely and it was clear to see that we can play on one level with Montenegro, our goal is to grab another victory. The dream is alive and we will try to make it come true. »
