Defence let us Down, says Turkey Coach


Turkey Under-21s manager Zeynur Pehlivan spoke to the Women’s Four Nations International Handball Tournament blog after her sides’ comprehensive defeat at the hands of a resurgent Faroe Islands team.

“We didn’t defend very well today,” she said “If they can’t do that then the goalkeeper cannot do anything and our whole side is built on this.

“We do have a very young team here, as half of our players are away in Holland at another tournament.

“We made a few mistakes in the match, although this and the match against Great Britain yesterday are both good experiences for us to take into the European qualifiers.”

“Our final match against Latvia will be the same challenge for us – the same fight.”
