Milosavljevic’s goals not enough for Podravka

Just like on Saturday, Podravka’s Dejana Milosavljevic became top scorer of the match, this time with 11 goals. She again won a personal duel against the competition’s top scorer Ana Gros, who netted five times. However, in both matches, Milosavljevic’s effort was not enough as Brest did better as a team.
