Valentin Porte (Montpellier HB) spoke to Peter Bruun at the VELUX EHF FINAL4 media call:

“We are trying to move away from our current trouble in the French championship, and focusing on what we have to do here is the best cure, I think.

“We are really determined to do something beautiful in the semi-final tomorrow.

“The semi-final against Vardar is just the kind of match we wanted, and I find it exciting to be playing the ruling champions.

“Furthermore, I definitely prefer to play against a non-French team, and I do not expect Vardar to know us as well as the French teams do.”
