The team met at a briefing for the first time on Tuesday, and then they took part in a physical test on Thursday morning, to give a precise picture about their condition to the management. The players were looking forward to the training in the afternoon together with the about 1000 visitors who were interested in the team. The team got a standing ovation from the fans who could witness interesting and sometimes funny moments during the training. 6 players (Eduarda Amorim, Nycke Groot, Yvette Broch, Kari Alvik Grimsbö, Nora Mörk and Heidi Löke) are in Rio at the Olympics, they were substituted by junior players at the training and in the following weeks.
It’s a good news that the condition of the injured has improved a lot, all of them (Tomori Zsuzsanna, Korsós Dorina, Hársfalvi Júlia, Bódi Bernadett) started the preparation with the team. “ All of them are in a good form, but it is also true that their form is not the same as it was before the injury.” – said Ambros Martin. “We are not making them hurry, we are patient because the season is too long to rush them to return. By the way, we have a lot to do, many things have changed compared to last year. Firstly, because of the modified method of the Hungarian Championship, every match has become important, technically, we mustn’t make mistakes. In the Champions League we will have top matches in the Autumn, since we couldn’t encounter stronger opponents in the group rounds than Bukarest, Rosztov and Midtyjlland. We also have to adapt to the new rules being introduced this year. This puts a lot of work on us as well as our opponents.”
Tomori Zsuzsanna scared the spectators a little, because she started to feel pain in her knee which had been operated,and she couldn’t finish the training with the others. No worries, the professional staff and the player came to the decision to finish the training earlier due to safety reasons.
The team will play in Győr three times at training matches which can be visited for free.
