Tomorrow the eight best Rink Hockey teams in Europe will return to the rinks to play their last chances of getting a ticket to the highly coveted Final Four. It is one of the most important moments of the season for all of European Rink Hockey. Two clubs have a clear advantage over their opponents but their destinies are different. The reigning champions Porto Fidelidade will meet in their Dragao Arena to confirm their three-goal lead, accumulated in the 1st leg in Lodi. Sporting will have an equally three-goal advantage, but they will have to defend them in the Palau Blaugrana temple where Barça will try to lead a four-goal comeback to overturn the result. Barcelos will have to perform the same defensive act: they scored two goals more in the 1st leg in mid-March, but they will have to contain Benfica’s offensive wave at the Pavilhao Da Luz. Everything is wide open, however, between Oliveirense Simoldes and Trissino, which ended in a tie 4-4. Oliveirense seemed to have the best but Trissino never left any stone unturned. Whoever wins this 2nd leg secures a place among the “big four”.Live scoring as always on http://wse.sidgad.com
