remaining, outperformed ZRK Golden Art and won convincingly, 30-21.

Despite having previously won the championship cup, the HC Multi Essence handball players were
motivated in today’s match and removed any doubts about the winner in the first half, which they won
17-6. The game became more relaxed in the second half, but the gap remained steady, and the victory
was never jeopardized.
There are still two rounds remaining in the championship, in which our team will compete against HC

The semi-final game in the final four competition was HC Alkaloid’s final game in the Cup of Macedonia
this season.
Our team met the team of Vardar 1961 in the semifinals. The first 10 minutes of the game (5-5) were evenly matched until our team entered a stretch of bad execution, technical errors, and even missed
shots from clear positions, and the opponent took advantage of that and made a scoring run of 6:0.

This was the key moment of the game, determining the overall rhythm of both playing and scoring. Our
team maintained balance, but we were unable to negate the opponent’s advantage. We were down 9-
14 at halftime, but we came back in the second half to win 19-22, 21-24.
But, once again, we lost concentration, and the opponent pulled away by an impossible margin. HC Alkaloid presently has two more matches left in the domestic championship. We play at home against E. Pelister 2 and then on the away field against HC Vardar 1961 in the race for second place.

Tonights win in the playoffs was another for HC Alkaloid. With a 22-20 win over city rival HC Butel Skopje, our team celebrated on the opponents field. 
This was HC Alkaloids eighth win in the playoffs, bringing their total of points gained to 30. 
Results-wise, the matchup with Butel Skopje was fascinating, as is usual when these two teams play. 

After 15 minutes of play, HC Alkaloid tied the score at 4-4 after Butel had taken a 3-0 lead before taking a 6-4 lead and gradually taking control. 
In this game, the home team only managed to take the lead twice more (8-7 and 9-8), after which our team maintained control until the very end. 

At halftime, Alkaloid led 11-9 thanks to Blagojche Trajkoskis clutch play, which allowed him to block crucial shots. In the following period, the game was played with a two- to four-goal advantage for our team, and HC Alkaloid maintained its lead with two goals at the start of the second half, taking the lead with a four- gol difference (13-9). 
The home team got as close as 20-22 in the last seconds, but Alkaloid kept control of the clock and won without much drama.
