The win ends a losing streak that stretched back eight years, and also puts Czechia level with Romania in the group with two points ahead of the final matches.
GROUP B
Serbia vs Czechia 24:27 (13:14)

Jerábková’s class decides the match
In a second half full of turnarounds and overall, a match with too many misses – 19 per squad – the winner was decided within the final five minutes of the match.
With so much at stake for both Serbia and Czechia it was only logical for someone with magic in her palms to decide the final outcome and that was where Markéta Jerábková stepped in.
The MVP from the EHF FINAL4 2022 scored twice in the last couple of minutes to give her team a two-goal lead going into the final 60 seconds of the match, which was more than enough to secure the win.
