The Eagles enter with their left hands in the Viseu International Championship

Benfica entered the Viseu International Championship with a left hand, and lost (23-37) on Friday afternoon to Veszprém, in another preparatory match for the next season.

Even without playing at a high tempo, the Hungarian champions, who have some of the best handball players in the world, many of them coming from strong teams like France, Spain and Sweden, among others, have completely dominated the Eagles, and are still looking for a competitive pace.

The Reds, led by Petar Digic and Belloni Moreira, achieved a balance in the first minutes, but their weak defense allowed the opponent to score 20 goals in the first half, marking a large gap in the first half, with an advantage for the Magarians (20-12). .

The second half saw no major changes, as Veszprém imposed its quality, against Benfica who still had a lot to work on to incorporate reinforcements into the ideas of their new coach, Jota González.

Djordic (6 goals) was the best scorer in the match, while Vesperm Jasper Marjok, Ludovic Fabregas and Marl Kosotorov scored 5 goals each.
