Šuman: We want to support the audience in Skënderje to win Spain

The men's handball team of Bosnia and Herzegovina started gathering today in Ilidža, where the next seven days will be prepared for the remaining two qualifying matches for the 2018 European Championship in Croatia, against the selection of Spain on 14 June in Sarajevo and Austria on 17 June in Vienna .

Selector Bilal Šuman expects the arrival of most of the invited players, and the national team will be completed on Sunday night, after nine players appearing in France and Germany complete their obligations at their clubs.

- We are starting preparations tonight at KSC Ilidza Hall. For a match with Spain every day we will have two training sessions. Of the 28 players invited, we only have one firing. It is about Saša Marjanc, who cut his knees ten days ago and he was operative - Šuman said. In reference to the upcoming meetings, which will decide with the Spanish team to decide on another EP, Šuman said that "there are too many combinations and maths".

- There is also a solution if Finland wins Austria we would have made it to the EP regardless of the outcome of the match with Spain and Austria. But our focus and match number one is the match against Spain's selection, and after that we see how things will work out. For us this meeting could be decisive. We want Skenderia to win the audience with great public support - said Šuman.
