Leading Zamek`s player speaks about returning leg of the 2015/16 ECLW final against Berlin (Friday May 27th 18:30 CET live on laola1.tv)

The 2015/16 European Champions League Women will be concluded this Friday in Germany by the clash between TTC Berlin Eastside and KTS SPAR-Zamek Tarnobrzeg. German champion and top seed has a slight advantage from the first game held three weeks ago in Poland. They won 3:2 (9:9) thanks to SHAN Xiaona who provided two points.

The best ranked ECLW participant and leading Zamek`s player HAN Ying believes that her side is capable to go down in history as the very first Polish club at the top of this prestigious competition:

“The first match was not so bad for us even we lost it. We did everything what we could. What I expect for the match in Germany: to play everything what I can and try to win the match! It’s difficult for us but we still have chance to win the title” stated HAN Ying world`s no. 9 who has 12-6 individual ECLW score this season.

Berlin`s SHAN Xiaona beat both Natalya PARTIKA and HAN Ying in the first leg improving her individual record to 12-1 (the best one in the current ECLW). One of decisive moments in the second match should be the encounter between SHAN and HAN two who many times contributed with two points in the victories of their sides.

German team is still undefeated so far having 31-0 in all three competitions: 18-0 Bundesliga 4-0 German Cup 9-0 ECLW. They have a chance to become the first triple ECLW winner after 2012 and 2014. On the other side Zamek tries to win one more European trophy after 2015 ETTU Cup.
