Lubumbashi, May 9, 2023 – HC Lupopo, in the men’s category, won a victory against HC Imara Patro with a score of 53-35 in a first leg match of the Lubumbashi Urban Handball Entente ( EUHBLU), 2022-2023 edition, which took place on Monday at the Kiwele sports ground in the city of Lubumbashi.
HC Lupopo dominated the opposition in every way during the match, as mentioned by the team’s starting coach, Gerard Mbuyu. However, he promised to work even harder to raise the level of his team in anticipation of the return phase.
On the other hand, the coach of HC Imara Patro, Alpha Kasanda, explained that the youth of his team, compared to the experienced team of HC Lupopo, was the cause of their loss. He also mentioned that the refereeing was not fair.
This result is one of many exciting games taking place during the 2022-2023 edition of EUHBLU. With several top handball teams competing against each other, EuHBLU promises to continue to entertain and impress handball fans in the city of Lubumbashi and beyond.
