Gréta Márton has withdrawn from Hungary’s women’s handball squad for the friendlies against France because of an ankle injury. The Hungarian Handball Federation said on 20 October that the left wing was hurt in the Champions League match against Dortmund and now needs rest and treatment. Júlia Hársfalvi has been called up in her place.

Same Ferencváros count, different assignment

The replacement preserves an unusual balance: the number of Ferencváros players in the national squad is unchanged, but a new player must enter the wing rotation at short notice. The federation gave no timetable for Márton’s recovery, so no further conclusion is justified.

Two matches, two cities

Hungary face France in Győr on Thursday and in Strasbourg on Sunday. The Győr match starts at 17:00 on 22 October. The original series preview is available in BSR’s earlier article.
