The European Cup Qualifiers are underway, at least in three occasions, as the weather perhaps postponed day one in Kutno, Poland (we did not receive an info from there). A look at the three other four groups:
Kutno, Poland:
With a day delay, the results arrived on the official website. The Scandinavian teams from OSLO and SUNDBYBERG got off to good starts, joining KAUNAS as undefeated teams.
Brno, Czech Republic:
The BERN CARDINALS are off to a good start, winning 6-4 against the Slovakian ANGELS TRNAVA. The UNION KUFSTEIN VIKINGS lost their opener 2-13 against KRANJSKI LISJAKI from Slovenia. In the evening host MZLU EXPRESS crushed ZAGREB 12-3. The highlight on Tuesday is the clash between MZLU and the CARDS in the night cap.
Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria:
The home team BLAGOEVGRAD got off to a perfect start into the event, beating SPARTAKOS from Greece 18-0. The VIENNA METROSTARS defeated BK APOLLO from Slovakia 10-6. DINAMO (Romania) won a thriller against BEOGRAD 96 (Serbia) 2-1. The Austrian champion could go to 2-0 on Tuesday, when they face SPARTAKOS.
Brest, Belarus:
Only two games were played in Brest on Monday or the result of the third match was not transmitted to the Confederation of European Baseball. Host BREST ZUBRS defeated STOCKHOLM 12-7 on Monday late afternoon. The ZURICH CHALLENGERS beat UKS DEBY from Poland 7-4. KNTU crushed BK VILNIUS 20-1. On Tuesday the CHALLENGERS are playing the home team BREST ZUBRS.
