Mystras meets Latvians and Servites
Mistra, who started the calendar year with two victories in the Estonian championship, will first meet ASK from Latvia on Saturday and then Servit the next day. The first mentioned team was overwhelmed with a narrow victory in the previous round, while the home competitor was defeated by four goals. Mistra is in seventh place in the table, while only one victory separates them from second position, and the situation in the Baltic League is very balanced.
The experienced goalkeeper Mikola Naum, who until now has coached his teammates on the bench, returned to the pitch for Mistra this week. “It was still difficult to come back after a long break, but I would say that considering that I have been away for almost eight months, things have gone surprisingly well. The second question is: what emerges from the level of our handball when a 43-year-old man years old comes out on the field and starts fighting?” Cage Lock began.
“Here during the week we will understand if and how much I will run on the pitch at the weekend. In collaboration with Jüri (coach of Lepp – Mistra – ed.) we will think about the best solution for the team. We have to leave the two points at home against the Latvians, not here there are doubts. Of course, with Servit it’s difficult, they are the front end and everyone knows their quality. But we have our plans and if we do these things and don’t let too many mistakes happen, anything is possible,” Naum continued , looking ahead to the weekend.
Double points are up for grabs in the match between Viljandi and Põlva
Just like in the autumn, this weekend Viljandi and Põlva will face each other in a double-valued match in the southern Estonian rivalry. Both teams started the championship with a solid victory. In the same previous duel, the leader of the Baltic League, Vilandi, had remained behind. Furthermore, on Sunday Viljandi HC will meet at home the same Latvians, with whom Mistra would have fought the day before.
