RESPECT YOUR TALENT scores: Mikhaylichenlo, Kürthi star at EHF FINAL4 EHF / Eric Willemsen03 June 2021, 11:30 Share URL via E-Mail Copy URL to clipboard
There were just six minutes left on the clock of CSKA’s semi-final against Vipers Kristiansand at last weekend’s DELO EHF FINAL4 in Budapest when Elena Mikhaylichenko stepped forward to take a penalty.
The 19-year-old Russian left back faced Katrine Lunde, the highly experienced Norwegian goalkeeper who is more than twice her age, but Mikhaylichenko easily scored from the penalty line.
It was a huge moment – not in terms of who was going to win the match, as Vipers led 29:25 at that time and won the game 33:30, and of course went on to win the title the next day.
