FEATURE: Despite his team winning the first leg by nine goals at home, the Montpellier goalkeeper does not want his partners to think they are in Cologne already
The FDI Stadium in Montpellier, formerly named Palais des Sports René Bougnol, has had a long tradition of crazy European handball nights. It was there where Montpellier won the EHF Champions League in 2003, beating Portland San Antonio by 12 after losing the first leg by eight. It was also there where Montpellier missed the first-ever EHF FINAL4 after losing to Chekhovskie Medvedi after a penalty shoot-out in 2010.
