HANDBALL – In the Eredivisie, the gentlemen of E&O suffered a major defeat. Against leader Tachos from Waalwijk, the Emmen lost at home with 24-34. Due to the defeat, E&O drops to 8th place in the ranking.
The team of trainer Henrik Bergholt already knew in advance that a difficult job was waiting. Tachos has won 22 of the 24 games played this season. The Brabant are the big favorites for the title and they showed that today. The men from E&O trailed the entire game and lost 24-34. GHV from Goirle will visit Emmen next week.
The ladies from E&O visited VENECO/VELO from Wateringen, the number 8 in the Eerste Divisie. E&O is 11th and still has to collect some points to play itself safe. That didn’t work in the match against VENECO/VELO, because the South Hollanders were a size too big with 36-30.
E&O, which is trained by Jan Gerald Mulder, has a lead of 7 points on 15th place, the place where you are directly relegated. Next week the ladies will play an important game against the number 15 Aalsmeer.
