HC Alkaloid emerged victorious in Group 2 and secured a spot in the Macedonian Cup final. Our team outperformed HC Butel Skopje defeating it with a final score of 23-20.
In the second half, our team secured the much-needed victory in front of the home crowd. Initially, the opponents took the lead, scoring four consecutive goals and reaching 1-5. However, thanks to goalkeeper Blagojche Trajkoski’s outstanding performance, saving seven shots, our team managed to get back into the game leveling the score at 7-7. Unfortunately, two errors in the final ten minutes of the first half led to a two-goal deficit for us at halftime (9-11).

Once again, Trajkovski demonstrated his skill at the onset of the second half, when together with Bingo they leveled the score to 11-11. The match continued with both teams trading goals, eventually reaching a deadlock at 16-16. However, Butel’s offense encountered difficulties, allowing Martin Serafimov to score three consecutive goals. With an additional goal from Bingo, our team surged ahead to 20-16 with ten minutes left on the clock. This advantage ultimately proved to be enough to clinch the victory at the Avtokomanda arena.
