Vukashin Vorkapic included in EHF team of the round despite Vardar's 33:32 loss
Vukashin Vorkapic scored eight goals but RK Vardar fell 33:32 away to Wisla; the EHF still included him in the team of the round.
After the fourth round of the current EHF Champions League, the European Handball Federation published its team of the round and included RK Vardar's left back Vukashin Vorkapic.
Vorkapic produced a standout individual performance in Vardar's narrow 33:32 away defeat at Wisla, finishing the match with eight goals.
Despite the team's collective setback, the Serbian's scoring output and influence on the game were enough to earn him a spot among the competition's best for the week.
Recognition despite the result
The EHF selection of a player from the losing side underscores that the list rewards individual merit within each round. Vorkapic's eight-goal tally was highlighted when the federation announced the team after round four concluded.
Vardar will now turn its focus to preparing for the next Champions League fixtures, hoping to translate individual performances into points in the standings.
