Although the Montenegrin junior women were disappointed after their loss to Germany in the quarterfinals, they displayed resilience and are set to compete for fifth place at the European Women’s Handball Championship.

Under the guidance of Igor Marković, the team triumphed over Hungary with a score of 36:33 and will face France in the fifth-place match on Sunday.

In what promises to be an exciting conclusion to their impressive run in front of their home supporters, they will go head-to-head against the team that finished fourth in last year’s World Cup.

This matchup represents another classic against elite teams from around the globe, a challenge that Anđela Guberinić and her teammates have rightfully earned, as their performances throughout the championship indicate a generation poised for a bright future.

During the encounter with Hungary, which successfully navigated to victory at the beginning of the main phase, the national team was firmly in control.

Bojana Peličić stood out as the top scorer with nine goals (five from the penalty line), followed by Elena Mitrović with eight goals, and Anđela Guberinić contributing six.
